Couldn't we just declare the UK as bankrupt?

I'm working on a game that 'simulates' the impacts of PO+CC, but to be honest the potential impacts that we are already seeing and the disasters that are occuring scares me, I often find that I need to watch a good zombie flick just to unwind (I wish I was joking)!

Someone earlier was refering to how we should not care about the starving people of the world or people impacted by disaster. I disagree with their viewpoint on a number of levels but...
