I would like to point out that according to the source given next to the UK's defence spending figure, which is from the Ministry of Defence, (and don't even try the Ministry of Defence doesn't know what it's talking about card) it says this puts us second in the world on defence spending and as  is well aware of the importance of using sources (If you take a look at the United Kingdom talk page and France talk page you'll see his desperate attempts to use sources to rank the UK's GDP behind France's) Seems like this user is trolling to me. Also no where on the source given next to France's defence spending figure, which is from a French government website, does it say anywhere that French military spending is now ranked second. Another thing, the figures given by the Ministry of Defence are for the year 2007-2008 unlike the figures given by the French government website which are for year 2008-2009. I'm sure when the Chancellor of the Exchequer publishes the 2008 budget the UK's military spending will almost certainly be higher than France's due to France is not in Iraq and is in smaller numbers in Afghanistan. 

 P.S. I change your wrong exchange rate value of €48,065,000,000 to $70,369,240,000 as of 06/02/2008 according to XE.com, which just happens to be the most used exchange rate website so I consider the calculation of the world's most used exchange website far superior than that of the editor who is carrying out a revenge attack. Oh and for the record nor do I care what you think just as you stated on the France talk page you don't care what I have to think.
