The Office for National Statistics ( ONS ) revealed in revised figures this morning that UK gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 0.7 per cent between January and March.

The UK's recovery from recession has been stronger than previously thought, with experts revising GDP growth up in a small pre-election boost for the Government.

The improvement in growth was driven by the services sector, with slightly stronger activity in the professional services, transport and storage sectors. The news will provide a glimmer of hope for Tory efforts in next Thursday's election, though economic figures for April alone released earlier this month were flat.
