In 2024, agriculture contributed around 0.56 percent to the United Kingdom’s GDP, 16.74 percent came from the manufacturing industry, and 72.79 percent from the services sector. The UK is not a farmer’s marketThe vast majority of the UK’s GDP is generated by the services sector, and tourism in particular keeps the economy going. In 2017, almost 214 billion British Pounds were contributed to the GDP through travel and tourism – about 277 billion U.S. dollars – and the forecasts see an upwards trend. For comparison, only an estimated 10.3 billion GBP were generated by the agriculture sector in the same year. But is it a tourist’s destination still? Though forecasts are not in yet, it is unclear whether travel and tourism can keep the UK’s economy afloat in the future, especially after Brexit and all its consequences. Higher travel costs, having to wait for visas, and overall more complicated travel arrangements are just some of the concerns tourists have when considering vacationing in the UK after Brexit. Consequences of the referendum are already observable in the domestic travel industry: In 2017, about 37 percent of British travelers said Brexit caused them to cut their holidays short by a few days, and about 14 percent said they did not leave the UK for their holidays because of it.

This was a decrease compared to pre-global recession figures, when on the British market there were 1.2 million people employed in all subsectors of financial services. These figures have decreased as a result of the crisis and closure of bank branches across the country.
The closing of bank branches
The increasing usage of online banking has resulted in a large number of bank branch closures in the United Kingdom.

The branch closures have become a way for the banks of decreasing expenditure as profit margins become tighter.

The banking sector assets as percentage of gross domestic product (GDP) was approximately 378 percent in 2019.

The Monthly Inquiry into the Distribution and Services Sector (MIDSS) is designed to meet the Government need for the production of a monthly Index of Services (IoS) and the Index of Distribution (IoD) which is a component of the IoS. Turnover data are collected monthly and, additionally, employment data are collected quarterly. It is used to estimate the change in turnover (and employment) in the service and distribution industries (excluding retail).
MIDSS provides 40% of the current turnover data used in the compilation of the IoS and 45% of the data used to estimate the number of employees in the distribution and service industries. Both of these measures are key short-term economic indicators. The MIDSS also provides 30% per cent of the output measure of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and feeds into the income measure of GDP along with other labour market data. There is no other official source of short-term economic data for distribution and service sectors with the comprehensive coverage of the MIDSS.
MIDSS covers the following sectors: motor trades, wholesale, hotels and restaurants, transport and postal services (excluding national post activities), renting, computer and related services, research and development, business services (e.g. labour recruitment and accounting), sewage and refuse disposal, recreation, and other services.
