In this week's Chopper's Brexit Podcast we get reaction to the Telegraph's exclusive report that British and EU negotiators have reached a deal over the so-called Brexit bill, landing on a figure somewhere between €45bn and €55bn. Craig Mackinlay, a Conservative member of the Commons’ Brexit committee, tells our Chief Political Correspondent Christopher Hope: “I can just about stomach £20billion but beyond that I have some personal difficulties. “You can’t extend that into ‘hope to spend in 10 years time on an unknown road in Romania’ where the turf has not been turned yet. “These seem to be ‘hope to spend in the future’ costs. I don't think these are Britain's liabilities.” Chopper also sits down with 'Mr Brexit' Nigel Farage over a pint to discuss his view on the state of the Brexit negotiations.    Plus, we hear a warning from the Fishing For Leave campaign about the dangers of writing the Common Fisheries Policy into UK law as we rush to exit the EU.  See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
