flag UK living standards to decline, GDP per capita below Malta’s by 2035, amid weak growth and high taxes.

flag UK living standards are projected to decline over the next decade due to weak growth, persistent inflation, and repeated tax hikes, with GDP per capita expected to fall below Malta’s by 2035 and rank second-worst among G7 nations. flag Economic growth slowed to 0.1% in Q3 2025, with real disposable income still below 2019 levels, reflecting ongoing cost-of-living pressures. flag Analysts attribute the stagnation to high taxes, regulatory burdens, and insufficient investment, warning that without structural reforms, the UK’s global economic standing may continue to erode.
