The British people will be treated as “deserters” following a vote to leave the European Union, Jean-Claude Juncker has warned.
In his greatest intervention in the referendum contest, the President of the European Commission said that the UK would face “consquences” and be treated as a “third country” following a break with the EU.
"If the British leave Europe, people will have to face the consequences - we will have to, just as they will"Jean-Claude Juncker
The remarks were denounced as “intimidation” by Leave campaigners.
"I'm sure the deserters will not be welcomed with open arms," Mr Juncker, a lifelong European federalist, told Le Monde.
