To consider the following Motion in the names of Councillors Pattison, Crook, McKerchar, Munir Ahmed, Rylah, Butt, O’Donovan, Firth, Turner, Sokhal, P Davies, Kendrick, A U Pinnock, Sewell, Lowe, Addy, McCarthy, Ullah, Homewood, Simpson, Hawkins, Amin and McLoughlin;
“We, as signatories, call for a Vote of No Confidence to remove the current Leader of the Council under section 7.6.1 of the Council's Constitution.
We believe that the current Leader and their new group have no legitimate mandate from this Council or from the people of Kirklees. Leadership from this small and newly formed minority party is not sustainable.
We therefore resolve to see the current Leader removed from office and for a new Leader be properly elected by this Council.”
Decision:
RESOLVED – That the Motion be carried.
