The Chancellor told the Cabinet the UK would not win any legal battle regarding Brexit bill cash.
Mr Hammond told the desperate Cabinet ministers at a meeting on Tuesday that Britain will only save between £3billion and £9billion if it leaves without a trade deal.
According to the Daily Telegraph, one Cabinet source said: “He (Hammond) said that the Treasury’s legal advice was that if we left without a deal we would still have to pay the EU £30-36 billion because we would be unlikely to win any case that went to international arbitration.”…(Ever heard of national sovereignty, Hammond?? -r)
The EU has not yet put forward what it believed the UK should pay the bloc if there is no deal.

Mar 17, 2019 EU rules “killed off” British industries and thousands of jobs when almost half the workers at the last train-making factory in Britain were made redundant after a German firm won a £1.5 billion contract.
As Brexit uncertainty looms and the chances of never leaving the EU grow, reports from 2011 have re-emerged, which claim EU rules killed off British industries and thousands of jobs in one fell swoop. Eight years ago, ministers were forced to hand Germany a £1,5 billion train deal instead of to Bombardier, a British-based firm. The move cost 1,400 British jobs…
Bob Crow, general secretary of rail workers' union the RMT, told the Daily Telegraph: "It's a scandal that the Government are colluding with the European Union in a policy of industrial vandalism that would wipe out train building in the nation that gave the railways to the world.”
However, Mr Hammond said the the Government had no choice but to award the contract to the Siemens-led consortium…”I think the question is whether the procurement was correctly framed. The way some of our continental partners approach these things is to look more strategically at the support of the domestic supply chain. It is clear because the French routinely award contracts for trains to French builders and the Germans award contracts for trains to German builders."
The first Desiro train from Siemens for the Thames-link network was delivered at the start of 2015, with the order completed by the middle of 2017. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1101291/brexit-news-theresa-may-delay-article-50-eu-british-industries-jobs-spt
