France's Medef lobby group concerned about Brexit uncertainty after failed vote

French companies must prepare for a worst-case, no-deal Brexit following the defeat in the parliament of Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit deal, France's Medef business lobby group said on Wednesday. "Medef has taken note of the House of Parliament's vote on Jan. 15. Unfortunately, this result has made it quite possible that the UK leaves on March 29 without a deal," Medef said in a statement.
