Growth returned in the UK economy in January, according to official figures.
The measure of everything produced in the UK – a metric called gross domestic product (GDP) – rose 0.2%, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said.

The data, however, is just an estimate and is subject to revision.
Figures are routinely revised as more information becomes available.
