Britain is quite unlikely to keep their rebate if they go this route, so they'll end up spending more on the EU than they currently do.

The UK was paying 0.3% of their budget for control of 9% of the European Parliament. Following the Norway model, they will keep paying a similar amount of money but control 0% of the parliament.

Excellent choice, my dear Britons, excellent choice.

Hardly a majority at 9% though, in most cases 9% is just as good as 0%. lol
