Britain’s prized ‘triple-A’ rating is safe, according to one of the three major economic rating agencies.
The announcement will be a vital boost to the Chancellor battered over his Budget and under fire yesterday from French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
Standard Poor’s reaffirmed the UK’s gold-plated status saying: ‘The UK has a wealthy, open, and diversified economy, supported by effective institutions that can react quickly to economic challenges.’
Desperate: Nikolas Sarkozy has launched a verbal attack on Britain by claiming on national television that the UK economy is in a much wore position than France’s economy
SP, which has stripped France
and the U.S. of their AAA ratings, added: ‘Our expectation is the
government will continue to consolidate public finances’.
The move contrasts with Sarkozy’s attack on Britain in a desperate bid to boost his flagging presidential election campaign.
He claimed Britain’s economy is in a
‘far worse situation’ than his own and hit back at a Financial Times
article which branded his pledges to create jobs as ‘broken promises’.
Mr Sarkozy said: ‘They don’t agree with me, and I rejoice in that, because I don’t agree with them.
The FT explains that it is necessary to act like Britain, which is in a worse economic situation than France.’
An International Monetary Fund report predicts growth in France will be about half that of the UK over the next two years.
On the rise: France’s Socialist Party candidate for the 2012 French
presidential election Francois Hollande is on course to inflict a heavy
defeat on Sarkozy
Speaking on France 2 Television
Sarkozy accused the Financial Times of ‘blindly supporting’ the
Anglo-Saxon economic model, telling viewers: ‘They don’t agree with me,
and I really rejoice in that, you know, because I don’t agree with them.
He also said that in informed
circles, ‘The FT had always defended the Anglo-Saxon model and that for
many years the paper had thought that the solution for the world is that
there should be no law. I think exactly the opposite’.
‘The
FT explains to us that it is necessary to act exactly like Britain,
which is in a far worse economic situation than France.’
The claim was branded ‘totally false’ by French newspaper Le Monde, which pointed out that ‘Britain is actually
more industrialised than France’.
The outburst is the fourth time he has attacked the old enemy in recent years.
Three
years ago, Mr Sarkozy called Britain’s economic policy ‘flawed’ and
said he would not be repeating former PM Gordon Brown’s ‘mistakes’ in
his own country.
In October at an EU-27 summit, the president retorted to criticism from UK ministers over the euro, by telling David Cameron: ‘You have lost a good opportunity to shut up.’
He added: ‘We are sick of you criticising us and telling us what to do. You say you hate the euro and now you want to interfere in our meetings.’
Long-term
forecasts by investment bank Goldman Sachs suggest the UK will fare
better than its neighbour France over the next four decades.
Britain is the third biggest economy in Europe behind Germany and France, but by 2050 it will have leapfrogged both countries.
The UK will also jump from being the sixth wealthiest country in the world to third, based on national income per head.
Latest polls suggest that Sarkozy will lose the upcoming Presidential campaign by as much as 57 per cent.
While Sarkozy’s re-election after five years in office has never been certain, this is the first time that the polls have revealed his campaign to be heading for abject failure.
The two-round contest starts in a week’s time, with the overall result out two weeks later.
A nationwide poll produced by the CSA agency showed that Francois Hollande, Sarkozy’s Socialist rival, will win the May 6 election by 57 per cent.
This was a jump of three per cent for Hollande from a CSA poll held a week ago, despite Sarkozy campaigning tirelessly.
Even the first round of voting on April 22 – in which Sarkozy was expected to come first – is now expected to be won by Hollande, with 27 per cent of the vote against Sarkozy’s 26 per cent.
Two other polls produced similar figures, suggesting that the country is on course to roundly reject the conservative Sarkozy.
If Hollande does win the two-round election he will become the first Socialist president since Francois Mitterand stepped down in 1995.

Why doesn’t Sarkozy have a go at the Finance Minister who implemented the problems with his economy. That would be his ex-Finance Minister who is now the Head of the IMF. Begging Bowl Lagarde.

Why does it seem everyone in the World hates us English? I would genuinely love to know because I’ve no idea what we’ve ever done to deserve such hatred. It’s like we are under attack from all sides, Scotland, France, Argentina et al. No-one has a good word for us and it’s becoming very tiring. The Europeans criticise us for not being fully engaged, but is it any wonder? Every time they attack us, it makes us feel more and more detached from Europe and pushes towards natural allies in the Anglosphere.

France will be doomed if they vote the Socialist Party in, it was a Socialist government that brought Greece to it’s knees, and the Liebour party the one full of millionaire Socialist’s, just about bankrupt Britain.

I love how irate DM readers get when the British get insulted, but are happy to dish out the same insults to anyone else. Nationality is a construct that we do not need, so quit raging over it.

Not defending Sarkosy here – but one of the posts on here repeated the falsehood that the French were selling exocets to the Argies during the Falklands War.
No – actually they didn’t do that at all – they went out of their way to buy as many of their own missiles off the open market as they could so the Argies COULD NOT buy them…that is a fact. The excocets the Argies used were already in their hands – and we sold them lot’s of military equipment before the war that was used against us.
The French actually were very good allies to Britain during that war…do some research if you don’t believe me before you hit the red arrow button…
The Belgians on the other hand refused to give us ammo for the SLR rifles our troops were using (the SLR was a version of their FN rifle and used the same Nato round).
