UK CEBR report/forecast on the UK economy. A selection of the CEBR summary:
· The report is not a worst case forecast.
· Halved 2022 GDP growth to 1.9%
· 2023 GDP growth to 0.0%
· Reduction in 2022 real GDP of £51.4 billion.
· Reduction in 2023 real GDP of £42.5 billion.
· Rising cost of living, reduced consumption, reduced exports, significant rise in inflation.
· Fall in 2022 living standards by £71 billion or a fall of £2,553 per household, roughly half of which is attributable to Ukraine.

The summary ends with:

"So the Chancellor is likely to be under further pressure to put the economy on a semi wartime setting on 23 March."
Before a footnote on the fall in consumption during WWII.
