Unleash Prosperity co-founder, Arthur Laffer, is touring Britain and meeting with the opposition leadership this week promoting a new book to which he contributed a chapter: “Prosperity Through Growth.”  It serves as a direct rebuttal to the tax-raising budget the Labour Party is expected to announce next month.

The authors consulted the Centre for Economics and Business Research to predict where Britain’s future place in global economic rankings will be. It found that Lithuania will overtake the UK in GDP per capita by 2030, with the Czech Republic and Saudi Arabia eclipsing Britain in 2031, and Poland overtaking in 2034.

If reform candidate Nigel Farage wins the next election (he leads in the polls) he has pledged to use the Laffer model to reverse the British decline.
