Mark, 1.03% of its members gross national income does not mean that each member pays that percentage to the EU coffers from their respective income.
Some member states pay a lot more, others receive much more than they pay in.
To translate this into some practical example: a factory owner or farmer (farmer can mean someone owning a large estate with expensive machinery) in an EU state that absorbs EU funds, could sit down and grin, knowing that money will arrive from Brussels.
A poor idiot in the West (Britain, for example), with no work, won't see a penny from the EU.
Is that fair?
The idea that the EU is a beneficial, egalitarian unity of equal rights and opportunities is total humbug.
