Proceeding contribution from Philippa Whitford (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 10 September 2018. It occurred during Debate on Legislating for the Withdrawal Agreement.
Legislating for the Withdrawal Agreement
I would have thought that when someone leaves the bar in the golf club, they pay their tab before they go. That is what the £39 billion is; it is not shopping for a trade deal. If the right hon. Gentleman is suggesting that no deal is better, so as not to pay the £39 billion, I would be interested to hear what he thinks will happen to the EU citizens who have settled here and to British citizens who have settled in Europe, because they are also part of the withdrawal agreement.
