Not just in The Sun.

Inevitable really. If they had got their act together earlier, they would be way ahead of us by now.

India is in 9th place and growing quickly.

Russia will overtake us soon too.

Mind you these country's have much bigger populations than us, so per capita they aren't as well off.

Again? That's at least twice in the last six months.

Call me when they pass us in GDP per capita.

true enough - Germany is obviously bigger now but France is about the same population as the UK and enjoys a better overall standard of living than the UK IMO of course

Only because they are all peasants, heavily subsidised via the EU to keep their peasant lifestyles intact.

please !

love your sense of humour mate
