"Secondly if you are talking about GDP per capita then Luxembourg is the richest state in the world but fat lot of good that does them on the international stage."

Who cares about the world stage. They are well fed. Probably have nice cars. And can spend more of their lives chilling with mates or going on holiday.

Only partially true. Only have rich people due to the EU stuff, "Luxembourg is the site of the European Court of Justice, the European Court of Auditors, the Statistical Office of the European Communities ("Eurostat") and other vital EU organs. The Secretariat of the European Parliament is located in Luxembourg". And its so small, but people still have to work hard.

You make us sound like pompous fat selfish rich brats - we're not. Plus we have one of the worst pollution rates thanks to all the people who live in germany/france/belgium (for cheaper houses & taxes) but work in luxembourg. them people piss me off.

Well, the world economy fell apart, and alongside horrific amounts of spending and borrowing by Labour, means that this is the most ****ed we've been since World War 2.
