UK’s Hunt: High inflation remains a drag anchor on economic growth
Commenting on the UK Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt said that “while an extra Bank Holiday had an impact on growth in May, high inflation remains a drag anchor on economic growth.”
"The best way to get growth going again and ease the pressure on families is to bring inflation down as quickly as possible. Our plan will work, but we must stick to it,” Hunt added.
