The UK is continuing its slow but clear fall in perceptions of corruption across the world.

This has already seen a fall in both ranking & a rise in the absolute level of the perception of the UK as a (partially) corrupt society.

In the ten years from 2015 the UK fell from 7th ranked to 20th (which is to say perception of corruption grew)... and this year has an overall score for corruption of 70/100 (the lower the worse the perception of corruption).
