There seems to be very little that unites Britain at the moment, but New Zealand might be it.
New Zealand was found to be a favourite among 80 per cent of the population, according to UK polling and market statistics company YouGov. Not bad, considering 3 per cent of those surveyed had never heard of it.
Aotearoa came out on top of a list of 195 countries as the place they envy most in terms of lifestyle politics. They weren't so sure about our culture or weather, but this didn't dampen opinion. New Zealand was ahead of other Anglophone counties in the Commonwealth, with Canada and Australia coming in second and third place respectively, with 80 and 79 per cent approval.
Poms weren't so keen on their own country, which came in fourth on the top 10 list, with eight per cent "actively disliking" the UK, according to YouGov data reporter Matthew Smith.
