While Mike S is the only one to actually understand the question his maths is flawed.
Most pubs these days serve 35ml measures not 25ml, so his alcohol content calculation has to be increased by 40%
So we have approx 13ml of alcohol.
As WKD has 16.5ml it is still stronger as a drink on normal serving size, but weaker if equivalent measures of both are drunk.

All wrong!!
Blue WKD is more alcoholic than the vodka and coke and here's why:
Vodka and coke contains (usually) 25ml of vodka at 37.5% (this is the equivalent of 9.375ml pure alcohol)
If you add 200ml coke you end with 9.375ml alcohol in 225ml liquid.
Therefore the entire drink is 4.1% alcohol compared with 5% for WKD blue.
As the WKD blue is a 330ml bottle you also get the equivalent of 16.5ml pure alcohol.
The pub drink would only be more alcoholic if you ordered a double (50ml) - even the larger 35ml serving would still be less alcoholic than the WKD.

Don't know the brand of the first, and I don't know what your pub does as "pub measure".
Generally,:
1 (4floz) glass of wine = 1 (8floz) bottle of beer = 1 shot (1floz[?]) of liqueur.
Now, that being said, and the flavoured water sold in the US under the name of "beer," and the kick in the teeth sold in central Europe under the same name...it depends.
Check the alcohol content (or "proof"). is is expressed on a 200 point scale, so simply divide by 2 for a % rating.
Wines are generally 8-12%, beers (tossing in the Americans and stronger German's) are usually 2-20%, typically ranging 4-8%, and liqueurs are generally 15-40%.

After years of drinking Jack Daniels (occasionally - I'm not an alcoholic) and deriding alcopops as sticky bright coloured crap, I decided to actually try one.
I had a bottle of blue wicked - one of those big ones. Not a buzz. Not a flicker. To me it's just pop, marketed for young girls to drink because they got fed up with lager and lime.
Now the girls get even more bladdered than the boys. That's progress I suppose.
I'd stick with the Vodka. I don't know which has the greater % of alcohol, but at least you avoid getting absolutely no buzz and feeling sick from bright coloured sweet liquid crap.
