London, August 20 (BridgeNews) - The U.K.'s global goods trade swelled
to a record 3.2 billion sterling in June, showing yet again the imbalances
in the economy being antagonized by strong domestic demand and a weakening
global economy. The Office for National Statistics said the non-EU trades
gap narrowed to 2.436 billion sterling from 3.139 billion sterling in
July. Both figures were roughly in line with expectations.
