According to the latest official data, the real GDP of the UK has not changed that much in July.
The economy of the UK did not grow for the second consecutive month, the Office for National Statistics said.
In detail, services output rose by 0.1 percent in July, production output was down by 0.8 percent, and construction output fell by 0.4 percent.
"The growth in services for July was driven by computer programmers and health, which recovered from strike action in June. This was partially offset by falls for advertising companies, architects, and engineers," said Liz McKeown, ONS's director of economic statistics, according to Xinhua news agency.
McKeown further reported a decline in the manufacturing sector, as described by car and machinery firms as having been under extremely challenging conditions.
Still according to the ONS, for the three months to July, real GDP rose 0.5 percent compared with the three months to April, with services output contributing a 0.6 percent growth.
"The figures suggest the UK's recovery remains on track, though sector performance remains mixed and growth over the second half of the year will probably be a bit slower than in recent quarters," said Ben Jones, lead economist at the Confederation of British Industry.
