Two days after International Day of Happiness, Natasha Devon asked me onto her LBC show to talk about the World Happiness Report 2025. 

We started off talking about how to define happiness, and some of the key findings from the 2025 report, in which the UK dropped from #20 to #23, while Finland remained at the top of the table for the 8th year running. The report found that social support, welfare systems in place, and how kind we perceive others to be are important factors that affect how happy we are.
