KATIE HOPKINS ripped into the EU’s #Brexit demands as she warned Jean-Claude Juncker against threatening the UK in a blazing rant.

In a stark message to the President of the European Commission, the #LBC host blasted it was about time Brussels understood the UK was leaving the bloc. 

Declaring Britain’s should be made to hand over a penny until Mrs May’s Cabinet reaches a deal with the European Union, Hopkins said: “I think we should be going at this hard, that we should be having a firm line. 

“I don’t see why we should be paying any kind of divorce bill before we’ve got our deal on the table, I don’t see why we should be handing over a penny until we have our trade terms agreed. 

“I think it’s time the EU realised we’ve left them. We left. So if you noticed Juncker, that door which is shut, that was us leaving.

"So you’re now talking to a door that’s closed in your face hunny bun.”

Although no exact sum has been put on the EU exit bill, it is believed #Eurocrats could demand Britain pays £52billion to settle outstanding liabilities, including pensions for EU staff and ongoing infrastructure projects.

A draft document on the EU's #Brexit strategy which emerged on Friday, it was also revealed Brussels wants to allow Spain a veto over any future deal between the UK and the bloc, that involves Gibraltar. 

Having none of it, Hopkins fumed: “You want to threaten us?

“You want to tell us you’re going to take Gibraltar? No sunshine, look at the door because it’s shut because we left.

"We don’t want to be part of you any more, we don’t want to pay your enormous pension deficit."

The #LBC host added: “What we want to do is look after our own people, we want to provide social care for our elderly, provide homes for our own old people!”

As the EU’s plan for Gibraltar emerged fury erupted and the territory’s Chief Minister, Fabian Picardo, condemned the move as he said Spain was “obsession” with the Rock and would do anything to secure their “medieval and rancid” claim.

British politicians also hit out against the moved as the Foreign Secretary declared the Rock will not be “bargained away” during #Brexit talks.

Boris Johnson said: “Gibraltar is not for sale. Gibraltar cannot be traded. Gibraltar will not be bargained away.

“The policy of the Government remains fixed and firm. The sovereignty of Gibraltar cannot be changed without the express consent of the UK and the people of Gibraltar.”

Mr Johnson hailed the territory’s “vibrant business centre” and claimed its harbour remains a “key Nato asset” due to its capability to harbour nuclear submarines.

Meanwhile, Sir Michael Fallon pledged to protect" Gibraltar "all the way" after Spain was given a veto over any future deal between the UK and the bloc which involves the territory.

Speaking to the BBC's Andrew Marr show, the Defence Secretary said: "The people of Gibraltar have made it clear that they don't want to live under the sovereignty of Spain. Gibraltar is going to be protected all the way." 

Mr Fallon’s vow came as Lord Howard told Sky News' Sophy Ridge on Sunday there was no doubt Theresa May’s Government would stand by the British territory. 

The former Conservative Party leader said: "There is no question whatever that our Government will stand by Gibraltar.

"Thirty-five years ago this week another woman Prime Minister sent a task force halfway across the world to defend the freedom of another small group of British people against another Spanish-speaking country, Argentina.
