'Britain has fallen out of the top 15 most economically free countries in the world, according to a damning report today.Well done Gordon 169th out of 179 for 'fiscal freedom' and 156th for 'government spending', are you going to apologise to the people of Britain any time soon?
The UK has slipped five places to 16th in the Index of Economic Freedom published by The Wall Street Journal and the Institute of Economic Affairs.
Hong Kong was top and Singapore second followed by Australia, New Zealand and Switzerland.
Britain ranked a shocking 169th out of 179 for 'fiscal freedom' - the tax burden - behind nations such as Zimbabwe, Eritrea and the Congo.
It came 156th in 'government spending' as a result of the mammoth debts racked up by Labour.'
