The gap between rich and poor in the UK has decreased since 2000, an international survey has concluded. The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) says the decline in inequality in Britain has been "remarkable". The report's author told the BBC: "...the poor have been getting richer more rapidly than the rich since 2000." But the report says the UK still has one of the highest levels of income inequality in the developed world. Links: BBC News
