The UK is £1,000,000,000,000 in debt!
 
Gosh. The UK is £1,000,000,000,000 (thats one trillion!) in debt due to mortgages, overdrafts, loans etc.
Think of it like this. If every man, woman, child had £17,000 each in the UK that would total upto one trillion. Also, it was also around about one trillion seconds when it was the significant year 1066.
I think I make up alot of that debt!:)

Best Wishes,
Natasha

That's a lot of debt. Isn't the US in the hundreds of billions?

The US is also one of the wealthiest countries as well, as with all the taxes, there's an annual federal income of about 1.7 trillion. I could be wrong about that number. I know it's over a trillian

Labour government for you. They somehow manage to raise taxes on everything and STILL put the country in debt every time they come to power. I know my parents are in debt; I'm sure they wouldn't be, if my dad didn't have to pay nearly £20,000 income tax every year.
