As for Theresa May and her point re the EU, on the ongoing Brexit Thread I mentioned I was watching The EU Parliament LIVE on BBC Parliament this morning. I believe both Sky News and BBC News were also relaying coverage to a certain degree.
It then went onto the full speech being made by Michel Barnier about Brexit. It is interesting that comments will be made by simply seeing the 'clips' of his speech that the media want to show..
I think Theresa May may well have watched both the EU Parliament and Barnier, as we had the opportunity to do, listened to the 'horses mouth' so to speak! I also think Theresa May, coming off the back of the German Newspaper article and Junckers assumed connection, she would have no option but to come to the conclusion she did.
I don't know if it is possible to 'catch up' with todays EU Parliament Brexit debate but if you watch it you might just appreciate how some MEP's are indeed wanting to make the UK pay for exercising our right to Leave the EU. Guy Verhofstadt was taking questions and answers.
