This gets brought up every time with Eurostat. The UK no longer shares data with Eurostat, but other non-EU countries like Switzerland and Norway do. (also Germany is missing here, for some reason)

Yes, having Norway and Switzerland included there shows that it's more about the UK not willing to share than the EU refusing to include them in Eurostat

It took me 10 seconds of Googling to see that Eurostat is funded through the EU.

I mean, with the EU average it was kinda obvious that it would either be from the EU, or from someone too stupid to know that the EU isn't Europe - but that's why we check.
