Other countries, such as Greece, needed to have a full-blown crisis in order to prompt such adjustment measures, whereas Britain was acting prudently and preemptively. If Britain, with a relatively low share of public debt to GDP (64.6%) is worried, the implication is that many other countries should be much more concerned.
如希腊等国，非待到危机充分爆发不可，才被迫出台此类调整政策，相形之下，英国可谓虑事周详、出手果决。英国的公债GDP占比（64.6%）其实不算最高，连它都着急了，说明好些别的国家更应该是如坐针毡。
