@Paul IT

Remember... Brits (like me) living on the continent receive child benefit in the country where they work / reside.

You won't see that in the - one sided - figures you quote, because though British children are the beneficiaries... it is not a cost to the UK Government.

So here's a suggestion. From your "0.002% goes abroad" number, subtract the amount paid by European governments to Brits working/residing in Europe.
