The UK economy grew by record levels in 2021 as gross domestic product (GDP) rebounded by 7.5%, according to official figures.
The growth, which exceeded Bank of England projections, was the fastest since Office for National Statistics (ONS) records began in 1948.
It came after a record 9.4% slump in the economy in 2020 as the nation's finances were hit by restrictions imposed due to the pandemic.
