Note: given the limited time period since June 2016, even the most frequently published ONS statistics only have a relatively small number of data points available.
The charts will indicate the highest (maximum) and lowest (minimum) data points since 2008 for each statistic in order to put recent figures into context. All data is correct on 19 December 2018.
