Latest GDP figures, Government spending up by 1.2%, business investment down 5%. EU consumer demand is still poor and wil keep growth below 1%. BRIC demand is huge and will push up imported inflation to above 3%.

George Osborne will have to cut spending as the economy improves. He needs to start with the small print in the employment and Government contracts - do the hard stuff like tackle pensions whilst we are still in a down turn. If he doesn't do it immediately then it will become increasingly hard Letting civil servants go or freezing recruitment will be the easy part.
