UK scored a massive own goal and are no longer part of Europe ;)

I assume that's tongue in cheek, but EU and Europe are two different entities - UK is still very much in Europe.
It never was. It's an island, while Europe is a continent.
Europe is composed of several islands as well as the continent.
By that logic Switzerland isn't in Europe either :)
If Switzerland were in Europe then Germany would have marched through to get to France. They didn't therefore etc QED.
