From the article:

"That pattern is however a rather unbalanced one, the only sector of the economy that continued to grow was services up by 0.8%; agriculture, manufacturing production and construction all shrank."

What exactly about Brexit spurred this leap in the growth of yoga studios, burger chains, and Star Trek box office returns (A drop in the GBP, as it turns out, for the latter)? Because it seems like losses in everything else is pretty much what economists expected. Manufacturing declined despite a drop in the GBP.
