THE economic future facing the UK in 2023 is “as bad as it gets” and will be “much worse” than the pandemic, top economists have said – as experts warn that the public is set to pay a high price for the Tories’ failures.
The news comes from the annual survey of 101 of top economic experts conducted by the Financial Times, which found that more than 80% believe the UK will lag behind its peers over the coming 12 months.
Brexit, Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng’s disastrous mini-budget, and the crisis facing the NHS and other public services were all cited as reasons for the UK’s poor outlook.
