Now here's the clinching statistic. The EU takes 55 per cent of Swiss exports, and 81 per cent of Norwegian exports, as opposed to 45 per cent of British exports. As we have seen, Europhiles like to claim that 'around' half our exports go to the EU, but that figure has fallen by 10 per cent since 2006. How much lower must it go before we drop the idea that we need to merge our political institutions?
