UK living standards since the 2016 referendum
Household incomes are around £1,500 year lower today than they were expected to be before the Brexit referendum, with the UK having experienced the sharpest income growth slowdown of any economy for which the OECD publish data. This analysis shows that underperformance since 2016 is largely a UK-specific issue, with global growth over the whole period actually outperforming pre-referendum expectations.
