If you see any positive coverage about the UK's return to positive growth of GDP.... just be clear its up by 0.2%, well within the margin of error & certainly merely confirms the UK continues to flatline in GDP terms.
Whether GDP is worth focussing on is another (larger) matter, but any news media 'celebrating' the return to growth are merely blowing smoke in your eyes!
