Peter Lundgren, of the Sweden Democrats, said Britons has shown “guts” by voting to leave the European Union last June and any attempt to punish the UK would backlash on the bloc.
Mr Lundgren told Express.co.uk: “It is very hard to say, there is always a possibility, of course, they are quite unpredictable to deal with in this house.
“If they try to punish the UK for having the guts to leave this project, then I think the crack in this house will be even bigger, it will fall together like a card house.
“I mean, if you and I, we went to join as a member in a club or something, we are always free to leave that club when we want.
“Of course it should be the same with the European Union. And I think the UK has a lot of guts now, they are as usual the first ones.”
Mr Lundgren brushed off doomsdays scenarios of Brexit, as the MEP said he believes it will open up new opportunities for the UK.
He said: “We saw them come to Europe’s rescue during the wars and now we are seeing them taking the first step of leaving the European Union, but not leaving Europe.
