Only one over...


"[Fraser Nelson] came across a striking fact while researching this piece: if Britain were to somehow leave the EU and join the US how would we rank? The answer is that we’d be the 2nd-poorest state in the union, poorer than Missouri. Poorer than the much-maligned Kansas and Alabama. Poorer than any state other than Mississippi, and if you take out the south east we’d be poorer than that too." Holy crap. In The Spectator today: Why Britain is poorer than any US state, other than Mississippi.
