Right, I'm going to take this topic on an economic level because it's what I do best (you bitches will be glad when I win the Nobel Prize in Economics
).
So, UK has pretty much been in Europe since the beginning (1973 which is about 20 years after the creation of Europe but still is considered as one of the first countries) so the fact it must belong to the US is out of question.
Furthermore, on an economic aspect, the fact UK doesn't have the same currency isn't a problem in itself as London is the first business place in Europe ahead from Paris, Milan and Frankfurt even though it's the 3rd ranked country in Europe (first is Germany, second is France) so on this aspect, the UK is not depending on the US.
Have you ever heard from the Blue Banana from Liverpool to Milan ? It's the economic heart of Europe, it's where it goes down to. It covers one of the world's highest concentrations of people, money, and industry. It speaks for itself.
I'm talking business and economic facts here. You may not agree but that's not a matter of opinion as it's been proved over and over again that the UK is fully part of Europe, no matter the currency differences. Let's take the Economic crisis as an example: Brown, Sarkozy and Merkel agreed to lead on the same economic policy to get Europe out of its mess so it's a sign UK is Europe.
And this topic is non sense anyway because even on other aspects (social, historic, cultural, ...) it's not the US.
That's it, feel free to comment on that but it's on your behalf, you don't want to challenge my economic skills.
