Quote from Yahoo finance:
The EU’s budget chief has ruled out the prospect of the UK keeping “the mother of all rebates” if Brexit is abandoned.
Gunther Oettinger said on Friday that he would find it “absolutely fabulous” if British voters decided to remain in the EU through a second referendum.
But he dealt a blow to campaigners calling for a ‘people’s vote’ by confirming the UK would have to pay more into the EU budget if it remained.
Speaking to reporters in Brussels, he said: “Even if, in the improbable but pleasant case that the UK were to remain – I would certainly find that to be absolutely fabulous but I can’t imagine it – in that instance then the gradual exit from the rebate would still be kept.
“I think that’s something which is no longer appropriate.”
His comments are likely to be seized on by Brexit supporters as proof the UK is better off outside the EU.

So remaining would cost the UK an EXTRA £4bn a year. That'll look good on the side of a bus.
