LONDON (Reuters) – British finance minister Jeremy Hunt said on Friday that “extremely difficult” decisions were required to restore confidence and economic stability, after data showed that the economy shrank in the third quarter.

“But to achieve long-term, sustainable growth, we need to grip inflation, balance the books and get debt falling. There is no other way.”
