Trouble is that Britain needs the EU more, much more than the EU needs Britain. Even though the UK now has to pay two billion Euros to the EU according to the rules everyone, UK included, agreed to, without the special UK discount no other country is getting, itwould be almost double that. The UK is falling into the same trap we here in Switzerland are, we both think we're somehow special and the EU won't risk cutting ties with us but both countries may be proven terribly, catastrophically wrong.
