::::No it doesn't!  If saying that the UK is in Europe is a political statement, what about saying that Corsica is in Europe?  Or that Japan is in Asia?  Or that Manhattan is in North America?  For some respected organisations that disagree with Fox, try [http://www.nato.int/docu/handbook/2001/hb12070201.htm NATO], [http://cyberschoolbus.un.org/infonation/index.asp?id=826 The United Nations], [http://www.coe.int/T/e/com/about_coe/member_states/default.asp The Council of Europe], [https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/uk.html the CIA], and of course [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Europe Wikipedia], unless they are all perhaps politically allied?  I honestly don't see how being in Europe could possibly be different to being part of Europe: they both mean that the nation is wholly contained within the continent, which of course, Geologically, Geographically, culturally and politically, it is.  Besides, the UK borders Ireland, which is also in Europe.  Sorry for sounding so annoyed about something so minor, but this website can be completely bonkers sometimes.  And I'm being very lenient by saying "sometimes".

:::::Stop talking gobbledigook. You complained about the statement regarding distance from Europe, with snide comments about geometry, which was confirmed, clarified and refrenced. End of discussion.
