英国经济六个月来首次萎缩，在指望经济增长为政府宏大支出计划提供资金的首相斯塔默耳边敲响了警钟。

　　英国国家统计局周四公布，继前两个月健康增长后，4月国内生产总值（GDP）下滑0.3%。此前接受调查的经济学家的预测值是下降0.1%。服务业和制造业萎缩，而建筑业则增长。

　　这份数据为第二季度经济表现奠定了疲软的基调，当前企业和消费者面临失业增加、税负加重和唐纳德·特朗普关税等问题。

　　斯塔默领导的工党政府指望2025年初的增长势头维持下去，从而为财政大臣Rachel Reeves周三提出的振兴公共服务的计划提供资金。

　　然而，事实可能证明这是一个高风险的策略，英国央行和接受调查的人士预计，英国经济增速将从第一季度的0.7%大幅放缓。
