12. Growth and decline in different business (sectors) classifications.
The United Kingdom. (Growth)
Was much more of a primary producer of raw materials. (coal, china clay, tin, oil, gas, farming, fishing, forestry.)
This led to a growth in secondary (manufacturing) industries eg. Steel, pottery, shoes, cans, cars, bikes, ships, textiles etc.
But this did not last as other nations in the world became more developed.

13. Business activities. United Kingdom. (Decline)
Raw materials (primary products) began to run out or get more expensive to produce eg. Coal, fishing, farming, clothes, shoes.
New sources of primary products were found in other countries.
The cost of production (secondary businesses) was much cheaper in other counties. (labour costs!)
We became less competitive than Germany, Japan, the Asian tigers, so more and more of our products were imported from abroad.

14. Business Activities. United Kingdom. (decline / recession.)
As the primary and secondary sectors declined in the UK, we became more and more involved with the tertiary sector.
Tertiary Sector is about services – Banking, insurance, retail, NHS, Education, water and power utilities, virtually all business apart from that producing raw materials and manufacturing!!.
Unfortunately, ‘toxic debt’, poor management and greed have led to a world recession.
This has a knock on effect on all global business, but is being felt particularly badly by us in the UK, especially because a large volume of our business is conducted in the tertiary sector.
Which has a huge impact on all other business sectors. (people will not buy things, so people don’t make them, less raw materials required, less T+T, less jobs.
Leads to a downward spiral in global economies and huge amount of debt which will have to be repaid. (UK OWES £170 – 200 BILLION.
