8. Overseas Outlook UK  2011’s growth projections revised down to 1.7%  The government’s Emergency Budget will take £120bn (€138bn) out of the economy by 2015, including a two-year pay freeze for public workers and up to 25% cuts in Departmental expenditure. VAT will also rise. US  The US recovery has continued, driven by a temporary stimulus from fiscal policy and accommodating monetary policy but is running out of steam  Growth projection is 2.3%, but there are some indications of a slackening in the pace of growth. Euro Area  GDP in the euro zone is expected to increase by 1.5% next year, but the pace of recovery across the euro zone is still slow and uneven  With the euro weakening against other currencies, it gives Europeans a greater incentive to travel and holiday within the single currency zone.
