UK macroeconomic indicators (Office for National Statistics)
About 50 curated headline UK macroeconomic series from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) time-series API: GDP and its expenditure components (quarterly, plus the monthly GDP index), consumer prices (CPI, CPIH, RPI, core CPI) and producer prices, the labour market (unemployment and employment rates, claimant count, vacancies, average weekly earnings), retail sales, public-sector borrowing and debt, trade balances, industrial production, services output, population, and productivity. Series ids are `ons_macro.<cdid>` (lower-case ONS CDID); each series carries `cdid` and `topic` dimensions. Use this for UK GDP, inflation, employment, earnings, fiscal, and population questions.
In SQL, this dataset is the rows of uk.series with dataset_code = 'ons_macro'.
