I am Pole , and i hope that prediction will be real , but I have doubts that in 2030 Poles will earn as much as Brits , there is still a loot of time , and all willdepend if there will be change of goverment in this year election ,as PO/KO gov is lead by donald tusk a well known german kiss ass , and for years he is sabotage Polish economy as much he can , as germany dont want strong and rich Poland , germany want weak and obedient Poland with cheap labour force , so they need donald tusk in power in Poland , and if he would win election Polish people will never earn as much as Brits or germans .

Plenty of UK based Poles now moving their business or skills (as doctors, engineers, electricians etc) back to Poland. Far easier to operate a business within the EU, great potential for growth and a hard working ambitious population hungry for training and learning. If free movement still existed I'm sure there would be plenty of Brits moving to Poland seeking new opportunities. UK isn't a complete disaster yet but worst OECD inflation, stagnant wages, poor productivity and shambolic public services compared to just a few years ago - it's not going well.

OK... I can make a comparison, because I experienced two ethnicities and their economic environment. 1) Poles do not take everything easy. 2) Poles are more individuals but have a huge skill to rebuild and sense of criticism to improve their organisations. 3) Poles, if educated, do not isolate... and they value to be educated. 4) Poles just learn, as they do not have things given from god, colonies, royalty or taken for granted. 5) Poles are interested in other cultures but they insist others to learn their language, have capability and tools to participate in the society if you want to live between Poles, as they do not like ghettos. 6) Poles seem to be more straightforward and assertive but they also understand the difference between words and deeds. Enjoy studying Poland if you want to be more successful than you are or better than they are in their activities. There is no shame in competing with the most competitive country in Europe that did not let to impose foreign rules on them despite of the terrible power of stupidity of their militarism. However, if you want to compete you need to learn who is your competitor.

I love the UK, I love the freedom it gives me to express who I want to be, the freedom of religion, sexuality...at the same time, I miss the beauty of Poland, it's nature, the celebrations and solidarity of people when shit hits the fan. Either way I'm praying for both countries and the rest of the world ❤

I lived in Poland for four years, and I can tell you they are hungry for success. While the United Kingdom languishes in Brexit and self-pity, Poland is poised for economic success. I’d go so far as to say Poland’s economy will outstrip the UK’s economy well before 2035. The UK’s economy is on a death spiral 🤷‍♂️. I generally steer clear of hyperbole, but those who proposed, pushed and executed Brexit should be convicted of economic treason.

Problem is that currently these right wing parties are popular in Poland and we have a lot of religious conservatives that vote for them. We have election in about two months, so according to some pools, our current right wing party is going to get 30%+ votes, so support for it dropped from 40%+, but what is even worse, our far right party might get 15% of votes. I don't like it, because atmosphere here changed to hostile in last decade. Public services and infrastructure are deteriorating. They create messy law and they use their blatant propaganda in state media and in education. They put their propaganda into school books, where they comment on recent political events and praise the ruling party, while always blaming opposition. They want to convert us into some theocratic autocracy. I don't want to hear that women are inferior and can't decide about abortion, that POC are worse, that transexuals are not people, that democracy is bad. I don't want to see how they defend pedophilia in church. I don't want to hear that I don't have worker laws and that unions are useless. I don't want to hear that coal and pollution are good. I don't like to hear that public transport is useless and everyone should use car. I would like some rationality and tolerance in politics, because I'm tired with current situation. Poland can become great country to live, but it requires massive cultural shift. People have to become more open here and caring about others. I currently work in company with Swedish culture, which is relaxed and humane and it's superior to Polish culture, which is based on abuse and fear. I also heard about work culture from my father that works in UK, so he says that he lives there on easy mode in comparison to Poland, because state there actually supports you and wants you to succeed, but in Poland they're against you. I wish that our society will become more cooperative some day.

Most Western and developing countries have this population problem. The big issue is demographic aging in these countries because worldwide the population is set to increase, so it's a local problem, not an international one. There are ways to combat this. For example, my country, Romania, also has this problem because in the past 20 years many young people have immigrated to Western Europe. But what I see now are 2 things: 1. we have had an influx of immigrants from underdeveloped countries such as China or the Philippines in the past aprox. 5 years coming here to fill the work labor gaps; 2. some retired people have started working either because they need the money or because they are bored. Some countries have even legalized assisted euthanasia so in the future many older people will decide to die if they become to ill to survive/ be productive, I guaranty this. These issues will sort themselves out, believe me. The population worldwide is growing and migration will solve the population problem in these countries. Just imagine that 120 years ago the population worldwide was around 1 billion and now it's around 7 billion and growing. There is not enough space on this planet for us, but we keep complaining about there not being enough of us.

Thus, without this ppp factor, the exchange rate of the country's currency is heavily involved. And two things can happen: 1. The Polish currency (zloty) will become more expensive, e.g. by 20-30% (it used to be like that). If only as a result of the end of the war in Ukraine and Poland's participation in its reconstruction. And then Poland's GDP and its nominal GDP per capita will immediately skyrocket (the exchange rate of the zloty to the euro and the dollar will change, and thus by the amounts of nominal GDP converted to the dollar or euro). 2. Poland can switch to the euro - and again - given its solid foundations, its GDP and nominal GDP per capita will skyrocket just because of the currency change.

Thanks Tejvan - cannot really see where the benefits from UK productivity and the deindustrialisation from the 1980s went. Incomes grew for the wealthy from increased wealth not growth. 1. The peace dividend from the end of the cold war didn't seem to result in significantly lower taxes. 2. The North Sea oil revenues hid the lack of investment in other areas of the deindustrialised UK 3. The deregulation of financial services created instability due to the principal agent problem and transfer payments from foreign investors benefitting from lax UK tax policies and ultimately led to the UK being over-exposed to the financial crisis which we have arguably not recovered from. Generally a lack of far-sighted economic planning since the 1980s where wealth creating from speculating and transferring assets has been more important than growth from innovation and investment - the Poles had a clean slate post Communism with an opportunity to re-new crumbling out-dated infrastructure - good luck to them! Can see UK plumbers going to Warsaw for the extra money soon.

Absolutely. Financiisation means that more money is being diverted away from the Productive Economy (Manufacturing and non-financial Services and Products) into the Speculative Economy (Financial Services and Products). More people are employed in the Productive Economy than in the Speculative Economy, so real wage growth in the former has been stagnant for years, as well as investment from investors, who can make more money at a lower risk by seeking passive income from assets like Debt and property, than investing in businesses. This shift known as Financialisation is choking UK Economic growth, as productivity issues are a symptom of inherent weakness that is s slowing of economic capacity and activity. Wages won't grow in such an environment, and so GDP figures belie an ugly truth. If you drew a graph tracking GDP Growth as a percentage, and Real Wage Growth as a percentage over the last 30 years, you would see that whilst GDP has steadily increased, real wage growth trends downwards. So, workers are getting less of the wealth they create over time, year on year.

Poland is just catching up with Western Europe. Two decades earlier Spain and Portugal were doing the same. Unfortunatelly both failed to overtake the UK. What I can tell about the economy of Poland is that PL can attract foreign investments because of cheap, very skilled and well educated workforce, and also UE common market, but PL lacks national companies that can stimulate productivity growth by technology and innovations. But maybe it's a step that is just beginning in the Polish economy?

From what I have seen in my country the Polish are very handy craft people and work in any sector, whether it is cleaning, agriculture or industry and are not afraid even to work in week ends. For the moment about 1,3 Ukrainians fled to Poland and got shelter but it is a win win operation as hundreds of thousands Polish work abroad whilst Ukrainians work in Poland. Poland is quickly levering up and if Ukraine will be free and become a member of the EU this may result in a very powerfull economic block east of Europe with massive growth and Poland will be 1 in line to help rebuild, hopefully the UK will also benefit for the endless help they provided to UA as well , and the UK grasp all opportunities then too , boost up their trading relations and own economy !

Big love from Poland, in a lot of countries they don't teach about Polish history well because it could put their country at bad sight or the history is simply hating us, we just want to leave peacefuly and rational where our views are respected. Its imbossible to avoid those new times, new generations but even If 80% of the world will for example do everything they want in the future, without any rules, traditons, religion etc. or if everybody will know nothing bout a Poland history, its ok for me, just let us live and do our thing because of that people maybe will see in us something more than just poor alcoholics or some "noname" not important country without history. It all started in 966c.a. so it was a long yourney. Im worrying about my country, we have a lot of bad people but that is like something inevitable everywhere. Im sad because of the direction which the world goes, I feel like our nation is living endless fighting life. Maybe not with other people now but fighting inside ourselves, we have a really strong mentality and a lot of wisdom from elder parents, grandparents, great history, tradition, families. The "modern" side of Poland and most of other countries in the world are ruining it with new order. I think everything will be good, remember this words when the world will come to the limit of madness, there will be a lot of Polish people which was mamy times insulted and ridiculed just exploding with truth and will be able to give their lives for it.

Well done poland very pleased they are doing well. It's a place i have visted for both leisure and work. The polish are very hard working and some of the work ethics or lack of them in western Europe haven't made there way to Poland yet. I will say it is always extremely poor economics to just draw a straight line on current growth rates and say if this continues this will happen. Predictions like this have proved to be wrong so many times. Poland have a couple of huge things going for them you named a few but missed a big one. They kept control of there own currency and didn’t join the Euro. The UK have some problems but nothing that couldn't be overcome if the government had the political will. For example the massive built up demand for housing. With an adjustment to building regulation and planning the construction sector could grow rapidly to meet this need. Creating lots of well paid jobs. The UK as a lot going for it to and is likely to rmain world leaders in some important growing industries. Example aerospace, biotechnology, finance and media and sports. Also the UK as the top two universities in Europe attracting and creating some of the best and brightest in the world.

The easiest issue to point out is education. In Central Europe it is unheard of "leaving school at 16", and "on the job" training. 99% of young people stay at school till 19, many also working - because the vocational education system relies on roughly half school, half work.

As a strategist and descendant of Harold II, King of England I can tell you that it will be better for both European Union and UK if you will come back to EU. The economic growth in current times demand investitions in following branches of industry such as: robotics, biotechnology, construction industry, medical industry, artificial intelligence, transport, drones, solar technology, IT, space technologies, military industry and of course food industry (because everyone must eat) and sewing clothes industry (everyone need to wear clothes). In current times single state or single country cannot compete with unions. So in current time it is time of competition between unions not between countries. If 2 or more countries cooperate with eachother then they are in most of the times stronger than single country. They are stronger if they cooperate with eachother than if they compete or if they try to fight with eachother (as Russia do right now). So the key to succes is to work optimally hard (not too hard) and smart, find opportunities, have a good plan and go with straight line to success with support of your neighbours. Rivalization between countries should be replaced with trade and support. It is easier for ten people to lift one fat guy than if the one person even really strong tried to lift him up. Your biggest adventages in UK are the resources of iron ore, coal and oil. That means that you can produce a mechanical parts from it of robots, cars, planes, ships, agricultural machinery or military equipement. But to produce them you must first have qualified staff of engineers. So the biggest threat is to qualify them and to provide them all basic life needs. To do this you must start from bases. To qualify drivers, bakers, locksmiths, bricklayers, plasterers, doctors, plumbers, electricians, construction engineers etc. So the starting point of your country is to revise the education system and set a short term and long term goals. Qualifying people should solve your problem with basic needs. To be in most optimal way to wealth and respect you must join to EU and make this union as strong as possible.

Here in the U.K., we're a fractured up nation of squabbling self-serving narcissists with Unions trying to destroy the established ''free-market'' system of capitalism with everyone out for themselves and to heck with the overall performance of the team. Unless we waken up and start to work together as a team with a common goal we will continue, ''full speed ahead'' on our journey to the bottom of the league of advanced nations.

Along with others the aforementioned nations embraced the ideologies of the European brotherhood and used its structure to maximise the prosperity in offered to their respective nations. Not so the strike happy, whinging Brits. We huffed and puffed at every E.U., decision which we deemed not to be in our own specific interests and if it superseded our own parochial national laws.

I agree with the first part (just thiink of Japan in the 90s), but not so much with the second. It is true for Tax paradises like Luxemburg or Ireland, that have very distorted GDP per capita figures. In most cases, however, yes comparisons between the GDP per capita of countries with different populations are accurate. There is no correlation between the size of the population and this variable. Comparisons between the total GDP would be absurd, of course, but not this one.

Poland has already almost caught up with the west. Now, further development depends on how the transition from an economy based on cheap labor for the west to an economy based on high technologies will take place. Extensive investments in technology transmission from Intel, Microsoft and Google bode well. The same with Korean weapons purchased together with the transfer of production technology. Poland has slowly and timely implemented mass technical studies, thanks to which 42% of people between the ages of 25 and 35 has an engineering degree or higher. This makes it an attractive place for companies looking for a cheap place with highly specialized employees. In my personal opinion, economy transition going well :)

There's no investment in people, the labour force, nor ingenuity or creativity in industries emerging and inequality getting worse. Manufacturing is all abroad, English based low complexity services like call centres are all abroad. It's a matter of time till higher skilled services move abroad too. Hard to look forward about the UK optimistically.
