curious, the league table I'm looking at says Britain is behind Italy and Japan. Still, I suppose the Express knows more about these things than the FT, and Italy isn't "prosperous" enough to count.
So now "GDP is estimated to have slumped by 10.4 per cent in 2020 rather than 11 per cent". Tremendous performance, bonuses all round.

The current issue of Private Eye helpfully points out that this change in UK growth statistics was as a result of using new methodology that spots bits of hitherto hidden growth – which other countries are yet to use.

So even this tiny bit of good news for the UK, crowed over by Brexiteers, is likely to turn out to be nonsense.
