Hollywood luvvie DEMANDS second referendum and tells voters GET USED to paying EU millions
AN AMERICAN screenwriter demanded a second referendum and blasted the UK for having the audacity to leave the EU while telling voters to “get used to paying” astronomical sums “and more”, during a heated BBC Question Time.
An audience member asked whether Emmanuel Macron’s promise to loan the Bayeux Tapestry to the UK in return for £44.5million in border controls was a good deal or a “stitch-up”.
The American screenwriter Dustin Lance Black, who won an academy award for his film "Milk" about the first openly gay man elected to public office in the US, said the UK should “expect to pay this and more” for leaving the EU before demanding a second referendum.
Mr Lance Black said: “I think it is wonderful that we are going to share art, I am an artist. But I also think that folks in this country need to get used to paying these sorts of amounts and more.
“I never had an opportunity to vote on Brexit but clearly there are going to be these unilateral relationships between countries that you didn’t use to have to do that with.

The American demanded another referendum on the European Union
“We’re going to have see this country reach out and create these relationships and friendships with other countries and the price tag is likely to be very high.
“I am very curious to see what this deal is going to look like with Brexit, I hope as someone who is going to call this home that it’s a very good deal but I’m going to be equally shocked if it is, the way things are going.
“I’m going to get controversial for just a second, but I hope when this deal is done and the deal is a stinker then they let the people have a voice.”

The irate local said: “Isn’t the delivery of the tapestry really just a poke in the eye by Macron? In advance of the negotiations in Brexit and forthcoming trade negotiations?”

“The money will be spent on new technology, on state-of-the-art fencing.
“It’s a sad situation, there is a lot of human misery which has caused this problem, but I think the British people are quite clear, we need to control our borders and this is a very necessary investment in that process.”

The Tory Minister said it was necessary to control borders
But the screenwriter Mr Black chipped in by commending successive British Governments for being so “inclusive”, taking a swipe at President Trump and asking for migrants to be let into the country.
He said: “Just as someone who isn’t from here, I know this great country has some issues - who doesn’t?
“But this country is a shining example of what is good in so many ways. I want to applaud both parties and the work you’ve done along the way for inclusion, for acceptance of difference and to make sure what my President says is not acceptable here.

The Tory Minister agreed with the screenwriter
“But understand that the people trying to get in from Calais, they’re not coming in to try and steal from you or ruin your culture, they’re coming in because you’re a giant, beautiful beacon of hope for them.
“And I hope that the Government finds it in their heart to make sure their conditions are liveable there and to let some of them in to share their goodness with your greatness.”
