Technical recession of 0.1% for a short period. But by the time the media have scared the crap out of everyone it will last until the spring.
Japan loses crown as world’s third-largest economy after it slips into recession
Fall in rank below Germany has been attributed to a weak yen and country’s ageing, shrinking population

Germany next. Hey, let’s call it, I don’t know, a 'world recession'? Does that sound about right?
You mean Germany has a better economy than the UK despite the UK leaving the EU?Japan loses crown as world’s third-largest economy after it slips into recession

Shurely there's shome mishtake, moneypenny...
The BBC had a program on concerning this area on Tuesday evening / night. It went on to cover what has happened to longer term productivity. All I will say is whoops. As I knew this had happened I didn't watch all of it or note what it was called. Reason various economic shocks, We did have a period where growth was 2nd from the USA which was at the top. Way off it now.
Yet another instance where various headline figures do not tell the entire story. That isn't at all unusual.

"Japan like Germany has an ageing population and is heavily dependent on exports. Europe’s biggest economy has also been shaken by rising energy prices caused by Russia’s war in Ukraine, rising interest rates in the eurozone and a chronic shortage of skilled labour."You mean Germany has a better economy than the UK despite the UK leaving the EU?

Couldn't see where the article was making a comparison to Britain's economy.
What ii does appear to be doing is the shifting sands at the top of those high up the ladder in the economic field who are now both suffering as they swap places.
Which applies to the UK as well. Other countries do appear to be handling it more effectively and still have real growth.
Exports figure in all cases. Fact of life. i should also mention that these exports may not all be goods. Services figure as well.
Could you give examples?
Here is some good news: the British public now overwhelmingly understand Brexit has been a complete failure
The sooner the public stop believing the Brexit lies, the sooner this country can get on repairing the damage.

Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons – poll
Only one in 10 feel leaving the EU has helped their finances, while just 9% say it has benefited the NHS, despite £350m a week pledge

Yeah it’s countries that didn’t vote to increase trade barriers with its biggest and closest trade partner.
So no examples then.
Notchy falls for the spin because he can't read beyond the headlines, which he ironically accuses others of not being able to do.Here is some good news: the British public now overwhelmingly understand Brexit has been a complete failure
