Bottom line is they will have a +14% hole in their budget to fill, which is not inconsiderable. So to say we are in a totally weak position is not quite true.
No, even with the previous statistics it's not good for the EU. My point though is that they don't need us more than we need them. It's not a symmetrical power balance which is partly why May is having such a hard time. It's still in both parties interest to reach a deal.
