Bill Etheridge hit out at Martin Schulz over his treatment of Britain post-Brexit

THE President of the European Parliament has come under fire over his recent treatment of Britain after the public voted to leave the European Union.
During a conference discussing the future of the Union earlier in October, the German mocked Britain’s alleged lack of a plan for Brexit.

“The fact is the government expected a different outcome, a different result.
“That shows you should never play with fire.”
Mr Schulz also claimed the only reason David Cameron held the referendum was to keep the Conservative party unit amid bitter backbench fighting.
Last week he reprimanded Nigel Farage after he described Nick Clegg and Ed Miliband as “quislings” over their attempts to keep Britain in the single market.
Ukip MEP and former leadership candidate Bill Etheridge has hit back at the German’s repeated attempts to disrupt the UK’s exit from the bloc.
