Gordon Brown warns G8 of new recession dangers

Gordon Brown is to warn the leaders of the G8 industrialised nations this week that international complacency is in danger of bringing economic recovery to a halt and plunging the world into a second recession.

Brown will set out a five-point plan at the G8 for boosting growth that includes increasing bank lending, fresh restraint on oil prices, action against protectionism, increased investment and preventing a generation of young people being lost to the world of work.
