Data released by the Office for National Statistics on Friday was in line with economists expectations of a decline. The weak April performance was partly due to the fading of factors that drove exceptionally strong growth in March, when consumers stockpiled petrol and manufacturers moved up production in anticipation of higher energy prices from the Iran war. Looking at the less volatile three-month rolling data, the UK economy grew 0.7% in the three months to April compared to the previous three months, in line with analysts expectations. Since the outbreak of the Middle East conflict in late February, damage to energy infrastructure and the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz have driven oil prices sharply higher. The weak April performance is another blow to Prime Minister Starmer, who is facing a leadership challenge if Andy Burnham wins next weeks Mekfield by-election.
