The woman, who works as an accountant, called for a
“clear starting point” on the cost of leaving the
European Union before bashing Theresa May’s
approach so far.
Speaking during the Channel 4 News debate, she said
the stance from the Government had been “airy-fairy”
so far.
She said: “I don’t think we should be paying at all, we
shouldn’t pay one bit because there is no guarantee
that we will get the rebate that Margaret Thatcher
negotiated many years ago once we’ve paid that
money in, so that could be lost money.
“I think we need a starting point, we need a clear
starting point, we need to say ‘look, this is what we’re
doing, we’re not going to pay, yes we’ll agree with
judicial system but it’s all very airy-fairy and not really
thought through.”

berated the Prime Minister over her exit strategy.
The woman said: “I think Theresa May’s had enough
time to plan and have a strong firm starting point and
we’re not getting any of this – business needs a
strong firm starting point.”
The comments come after Brexit Secretary David
Davis and Michel Barnier, the EU’s chief negotiator,
held a press conference after the latest round of talks.
Mr Davis said the UK was making “decisive steps
forward” in its negotiations with the EU.

He said British courts would take into account EU law,
claiming the foundations for his proposals were to
“end the anxiety” of EU citizens in the UK.
The Brexiteer also insisted he had held “very
constructive” talks on the financial settlement with Mr
Barnier, adding there was scope to “explore” a
transitional deal, as set out by Mrs May in her speech.
Mr Barnier confirmed he was happy with the clarity on
certain points made by Mrs May.
He said: “The Prime Minister’s speech in Florence has
created a new dynamic in the negotiations.
“We have managed to create clarity on some points
but for others, we are not there yet and more work
remains to be done.
“We will keep working with a constructive spirit until
we reach a deal on the essential principles on the
UK’s withdrawal.”
