We pay £8.5 Billion net.

UK Population 65 million.

Fag packet calculation works out Norway £118 per head UK £130 per head

£12 difference
You aren't comparing like for like there for a couple of reasons, not least of which that Norway has a way higher GDP per capita than we do, and contributions are based on that.

If we had the same GDP Norway do we'd be paying nearly 2.5 times as much.

Also worth a look at http://euquestion.blogspot.co.uk/201...orway-pay.html
