>>Pretty much correct. If you wanted to be pedantic England is part of Gt. Britain which is part of the UK :-}
Right, and definitely part of the EU which is why you retain the pound. ;-)

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
