EU can 'go whistle' over Brexit bill, says UK foreign minister
By EUobserver
UK foreign minister Boris Johnson said on Tuesday that EU demands for the UK to pay all of its financial commitments before leaving the bloc are "extortionate". Answering an MP who asked whether he will make "clear to the EU that if they want a penny piece more then they can go whistle?", Johnson said that "to go whistle is an entirely appropriate expression."
