The UK economy saw a lacklustre end to 2025, growing by a slightly lower-than-expected 0.1% in the final quarter of the year.
The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said there was no growth in the crucial services sector for the first time in over two years, with the slight boost driven by an increase in manufacturing.
The construction sector, meanwhile, suffered its worst quarterly performance in four years, the ONS added.
Labour has made growing the economy its number one priority since coming to power, but the ONS said the overall picture for growth at the end of year remained "subdued".
The economy is estimated to have grown by 1.3% for the whole of 2025, a slight uptick from 1.1% growth a year earlier, but lower than the 1.4% forecast by the Bank of England.
