Finally, I am intrigued by the UK figures that increased by 15% to 8.4 billion and the eurozone increased by 10%% to 6 billion.
Obviously, the eurozone is a much bigger area. It is one of the reasons we argue that it is a benefit in being involved in the European Union. I am surprised at that figure. Is there a Brexit issue in relation to an adjustment in how those figures are presented in terms of them being exports because the UK is now a third country or what accounts for that?
