Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, in the Telegraph 5 September 2005, wrote that 'Britain could soon be Europe's sick man again.'
Germany, not the USA, is now the world's biggest single exporter.
Germany makes the hardware that powers the economies of Asia and eastern Europe.
Germany's trade surplus is greater than that of China, Japan and India combined.
Evans-Pritchard writes:
"Britain could soon be Europe's sick man again, gasping and choking with the worst of the big-government sclerotics."
