> Westminster is just as far away from most of the UK as Brussels.
A mathematical impossibility. Wherever you define the centre of the UK to be, it's nearer to Westminster than Brussels:

The average distance of any point in the UK from Westminster or Brussels is then just going to be the root of the square of the average distance to that centre point plus the square of the distance to Westminster or Brussels.
