The economic optimism in the United Kingdom has fallen to its lowest level since the 2008’s financial crisis, Ipsos MORI said on Thursday, as reported by Reuters.
“69% of members of the UK public polled say they think the economy will get worse in the next 12 months, up from 42% in February,” the survey showed.
