Sterling fall hits taxpayers in the pocket

Brexit's already hitting the government in the pocket - with higher costs for its office in Brussels.

A freedom of information request asked how much the facility cost the taxpayer over the past year.

In its response, the Cabinet Office revealed it spent almost £20,000 on rent, with another £13,000 on travel and office costs.

It says paying the bills in euros means prices have risen significantly as the pound fell against the European currency following the referendum in the UK.
