Johnson said the 39 billion pounds is money Britain would like to spend on its priorities and that’s not a threat, just the reality. A spokesman for the Prime Minister's office refused to say how much Britain will pay for the divorce if the UK leaves the EU without a deal.

The EU has so far rejected British proposals regarding the "divorce bill". It says Britain must pay 39 billion pounds with or without an agreement.
