    At this debate, I asked government member, Jo Johnson, MP, brother of London Mayor Boris, if Britain could be a number one economy again. He said no. In fact, as a country he said Britain is just going to get poorer and poorer relative to other countries. And the reason? He said it's because the UK only has a population of around 60 million. This doesn't quite make sense to me, as Australia only has a population of around 23 million, and yet the IMF recently predicted that Australia would be the best performing major advanced economy in the world over the next two years. Why not us? To see a YouTube excerpt of my question and Mr Johnson's answer go to: http://youtu.be/IpvOOqMd6Ww (55 seconds)
