Will the EU survive after the UK leaves?

While the focus continues to shine on the UK and an inability to get the withdrawal agreement through the Houses of Parliament, where would a no deal Brexit leave the EU? Recent research suggests that the EU is counting on the UK’s multibillion euro settlement in next year’s budget. Indeed, some sources suggest that the UK settlement makes up 30% of the EU budget for next year. What if the UK refuses to pay in light of a no deal Brexit?

As/when the UK does leave this will put a lot of the focus back on the EU - how will they fair under the spotlight without the UK's net contribution?

I see the UK economy shrunk during the last quarter - no need to panic yet but there will be obvious concerns within the business community.
