Facts

Economy
The world’s first industrialized economy – now primarily a post-industrial service economy and highly dependent on financial and business services. The post-WWII decline through poor management, low investment, labour unrest and high levels of public ownership was reversed from the mid-1980s to the late 2000s. One of the hardest hit by the 2008-2009 economic crisis (the impact of which will be felt for some time to come), but still the world’s fifth-largest economy. Unemployment was 2.5m in 2010. Resistant to entry into Euro monetary system.
