Unable to set software sources to best UK server - pompeyrodney - 06-28-2017

When I try to change my sources to the best/ fastest server in UK, it returns the fastest server as being mirrors.nl.eu.org. Please see this link https://justpaste.it/18d7z for the errors I receive. It would also seem that the extras repository is causing an issue as I have had to remove that from my sources.list file.
Many thanks

Try the Package System Repair utility in Lite Tweaks.

Thanks Jerry but it is still saying the US is the fastest

Sorry Jerry but I don't believe this should be solved, it still returns an american server when you select uk, and when the cache is reloaded you get:
