I don't have investments in the UK. I am put off by the gigantic debts built up in the last few years by the previous government. The numbers are truly staggering.
And the UK has had a balance of trade deficit for the last 25 years which has been growing over the years. It used to rely on North Sea oil to bolster its international earnings coupled with the City of London being a financial centre. But as these have declined I don't see anything replacing this revenue stream. I think the balance of trade and debt levels will get worse.
