AQA GCSE Geography 8035 Help please!!!

This might be a stupid question but in the changing economic world unit, for the UK economy section in my txt book we are still in the EU. Do I still have to answer anything that might come up as though we are still in the EU? My teacher skipped over this whole unit and has kind of checked out so I have no idea.

no, best to google upto date statistics as brexit was a long time ago. u are most likely looking at an outdated textbook. geo statistics are always changing so there is some room for error imo but this is a well known fact now that it isn't in the EU

Even though there is no mention of it in the specification?

the UK being in the eu or not, is not a point in the spec. its more of a random fact that u would bring up. its the same as if you were to idk quote the prime minister and say it is boris johnson just bc ur textbook says it still is, even tho it is widely known that he is not the current pm. If an examiner read smth where you mention that the UK is currently in the EU they're going to think you have no clue what ur on about. if it is relevant, you could bring it up in a scentence and say the uk used to be in the eu and this had xyz impact, but you shouldnt said ' the uk is part of the eu so xyz...'
