LCCI reacts to Parliament rejecting the Government’s Brexit deal

Wednesday 16 January 2019

London Chamber of Commerce and Industry Chief Executive, Colin Stanbridge, said:

“Brexit uncertainty has been impacting businesses for some time now, with business confidence and economic indicators in the capital plummeting.

But the adverse impact of the uncertainty is nothing compared to the economic disaster that will ensue if this country leaves the EU without a deal.

London businesses are aghast as Parliament continues to either guide or fail to stop the country heading towards the No Deal cliff edge. MPs simply must agree a deal, and fast.”
