Have they just got the title of the chart wrong? You say yourself the bauxite tends to be turned into alumina where it's dug up. So places exporting bauxite should also (have the potential to) export alumina, presumably...?
The report was written not by a human tax thief drone but by a bot, ChatGPT for example, which had naturally to be instructed by the human drone to churn out a report in the bureau idiom, so there was at least a little involvement.
Bad things are happening! But also good things! The government is here to help navigate these changes! It does all sound a bit GCSE level, rewritten by ChatGPT.

May I be the 97th person to point out that you've dropped a ,000:
"And now here is our real problem. This pinheads dancing on angels costs us
£1.2 trillion a year. That’s £1,200,000,000. One thousand two hundred
*million* pounds. 45% of everything that anyone does in the country goes to
feed these people."
Should read:
"That’s £1,200,000,000,000. One thousand two hundred *billion* pounds."
Unless the real figure is £1.2 billion, because the larger number includes
not just bureaucrats but also lots of actual stuff, like healthcare,
education, transport etc.
Ashamed. To lose three orders of magnitude. Sigh. Quentin is, of course, correct.
