What did Australia do wrong to have the worst ranking of the high income countries for doing business across borders. New Zealand is not much better. The British are not benefiting as much as they could from the common market. Being in continental Europe must have advantages except if your Germany.

The data is detrended at 1.9% per year – the trend rate of growth for the USA in the 20th century. A rising line means growth greater than 1.9% for that year, a falling line means growth of less than 1.9% for the year. A flat line is growth of 1.9% for that year.
Britain, Sweden and Denmark all grew quickly up until the 1970s in a period known as post-war catch up.In the 1970s and early 1980s, there was the British disease. The 1970s to the early 1990s was Swedosclerosis. There was a boom in the British economy subsequent to the economics of Mrs Thatcher.
