This R&D provides resources on the British economy, which has recently returned to pre-2008 economic crisis levels. The economic recovery, which took seventy-five months, is the longest in British history. British political observers believe it will give a boost to Prime Minister David Cameron’s re-election chances next year.
Note: This will be the last R&D of the 2013-2014 season. R&Ds will return when Extemp Central begins its coverage of the 2014-2015 season on August 1.
