NEW: UK economy grew by just 0.1% in third quarter of year, down from 0.5% in second quarter @ONS.

Uncertainty around Labour’s first budget & high interest rates played their part, but still a blow for Rachel Reeves as underlines difficulty of reaching her ambitious growth target.

Some in Labour want to recalibrate economic focus away from growth towards cost of living ie ‘will people feel better off by time of next election?’

This chart shows that’s not easy task either, with @OBR_UK forecasting real household disposable income pp set to fall for next two years.
