    How many times has it been revised? First they took out the USA part because of Trump, then they added in a bit of New Zealand’s economy. It’s a joke.

    No. That’s how the method works: You create a country that’s actually comparable. If a country changes, it may cease to be comparable.

    What’s your method, though? Comparing the UK to the rest of the EU? Our economic structure doesn’t even begin to be comparable! Same goes for comparisons against “near peers” countries being similarly wealthy doesn’t mean that they’re structured equivalently.

      That’s not what that model does. It picks pieces of different economies and puts them together like Frankenstein’s monster and then they chop a leg off because it no longer fits the narrative.

      Are you really saying comparing the 6 biggest economies in Europe is wrong? Lol

      It’s absurd to take that as proof of anything versus comparison with similar local economies 👇
