I think the median adjusted disposable income for the two countries is within 10% or so

I've not seen figures for that, do you know where to find them? IMF Polish GDP per capita in PPP is $49,060 which is a bit further behind than that

There are problems with Ireland the housing component of AIC. It’s extremely low and critics like Coffey say it’s not a good measure (like every Irish stat!).

Yeah, median gross wages in Lithuania and Cyprus are about €20k & €26k, I doubt there's a meaningful way they consume more than Irish residents

I can't remember precisely (there's a good chance I am muddling my figures). But I think the point is to take income Vs GDP, the median (as the UK super wealthy do skew the figs) and PPP adjustment. But again, I might be wrong. Thought it was in the FT - how the UK is a poor country plus London
