The annual deficit in 2009-2010 was 10.3% of GDP and 4.5% of GDP in 2023-24.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Office of National Statistics (ONS) does not publish the annual deficit in real terms. In order to remove the effects of inflation and provide an indication of a country\u2019s ability to service borrowing and debt, it is typical to compare fiscal aggregates as a percentage of GDP, which represents the scale of the aggregate in comparison to the size of the economy at the relevant time.<\/p>
<\/p>
In nominal terms, the annual deficit was £160.9bn in 2009-2010 and £122.1bn in 2023-24.<\/p>
<\/p>
As a proportion of government spending, the annual deficit was 22.2% in 2009-2010 and 10.0% in 2023-24.<\/p>
