Jun 22nd, 2011 - 01:39 pm - Link - Report abuse 0You can see the data here: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/uk.html
Gibraltar, Guernsey, and the Island of Man are all British dependencies just like the Falklands where the per capita GDP is $35,000.
It's funny to read comments from Argentinians about the UK's economy, funny as in tragic since the Argentine per capita GDP is highly inflated by the government much like other statistics: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/uk.html
Not sure how the citizens of a country whose per capita GDP is a quarter of that of the United Kingdom get off at criticizing British economy.

Jun 23rd, 2011 - 05:02 am - Link - Report abuse 0“The UK's per capita GDP is $34,800” and for that reason is not even among the 35 richer countries in the world idiot.
“Gibraltar, Guernsey, and the Island of Man are all British dependencies just like the Falklands where the per capita GDP is $35,000.”
YOU say that this nations are independents of UK all the time so don’t counts as UK par of the economy else their are counted as a colonies.
So are you tell me the Falklands is a colony and not and independent country as you say all the time?
Should Spain will count all GDP of Latam as their because we speak Spanish?
You sound ridiculous.
@britonIdiot
I didn’t because UK and Argentina are not among the 35 richer countries in the world.
