Sky News’s economics and data editor Ed Conway looks at the implications of Britain entering recession on this episode.

Although the two quarters of negative growth is a fairly arbitrary definition and could be revised, Ed tells host Greg Milam why the GDP per head figures could tell us more.

They also discuss the political implications for Rishi Sunak who’d made growing the economy one of his big five pledges.

Plus, Manchester restaurant owner Karina Jadhav on what recession means for her business.
