Economists at the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) say growth will slow to 1.1 per cent this year. The influential business lobby group is also highly concerned of the impact of a no-deal Brexit.

Shockingly, this would be the slowest rate of growth since the global financial crisis of 2009. The previous prediction was 1.3 per cent, still a sluggish growth rate for the UK economy.

Adam Marshall, the group’s director general, said the UK economy is slowing to a “snail’s pace” due to hesitation in the business world over Brexit.

Marshall said: “The drag effect on investment and trade would intensify in the event of a ‘messy’ and disorderly Brexit. Businesses need the Brexit negotiations to deliver clarity, precision and results at pace over the coming weeks.”

The only alternative to the Chequers plan is crashing out of Europe with no deal, Theresa May has told a BBC interviewer.

May said: “I believe we will get a good deal. We will bring that back from the EU negotiations and put that to parliament. I think that the alternative to that will be not having a deal.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
