UK to fall furthest into debt, warn economic experts - Business News, Business - The Independent
The UK is predicted to sink further into the red than any other major developed country next year, an economic body warned today.

The fiscal deficit is expected to rise to 14 per cent of economic output in 2010, compared to an average of 8.75 per cent in the 30 most developed markets, according to a report by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).

The OECD warned that "public finances have deteriorated sharply" since the beginning of the recession and called on the UK to continue to develop "a strong and credible" framework for reducing the ratio of debt to output.

"To improve stability, the government should continue to develop a concrete and comprehensive plan to ensure that debt is on a declining path once recovery takes hold," the OECD said.

I think you'll find that anyway they can screw the incoming conservative government works for the current goverment.
