Ouch! New figures show that the UK's GDP shrank by 0.7% in the last quarter. That's the third consecutive quarterly fall. We are well and truly double-dipping. So, for the benefit of my readers in government, it's time for yet another portrait of John Maynard Keynes (he of sound economic sense). This one shows him with his wife, the Russian ballerina Lydia Lopokova, and was painted in 1932 by William Roberts.
