Well, it's a fact we're right in the middle... That's what allows us to be obnoxious... nobody can go around us.

Well, I read above that "Europe", as seen from the UK, was what's on the continent (beyond the fog). So it would seem that the UK is the sole non-European member of the EU...

If Russia and Turkey are in Europe, and if Britain is out, then France could be out too...

France only THINKS she's in the middle; the middle--by any measure, geographic, population, economy, is probably in Poland or Austria.
