News in brief Call to rule out ‘no deal’ Brexit A MOTION calling on the Prime Minister to rule out a ‘no deal’ Brexit and extend Article 50 if necessary – to avoid the UK leaving the EU with ‘no deal’ – was passed by the Council on 23 January. The motion, proposed by Cllr Guy Nicholson, Cabinet Member for Planning, Business and Investment, also supported the right of Parliament to stop such a ‘no deal’ scenario. He said: “The Council supports this action as a first credible step in achieving the call for a General Election or ensuring enough time is given for all options, including campaigning for a public or ‘people’s vote’, with a clear option to remain in the EU, on the table. “This would resolve the current political deadlock and provide the democratic endorsement, or not, of a final deal.
