Last year’s elections to the county council were delayed for 12 months after the authority agreed to move forward with proposals for devolution and local government reorganisation.
In addition, plans to elect a mayor for Norfolk and Suffolk were put back at the end of last year, with the government later postponing the council election again.
Yesterday, however, ministers reversed that decision following a legal challenge from Reform UK.
Last month, Mason Billig was criticised for not asking for elections to take place.
But she told Tuesday’s meeting that Reed “had made threats, not to my face, but through various back channels” that Norfolk would not get additional devolution funding and powers if she did otherwise.
Calling him a “two-faced bully” she went on to say she wanted to quote Rik Mayall’s character Rick in 1980s TV comedy The Young Ones.
Spelling out a word, she said: “What an utter, utter B-A-S-T-A-R-D.”
She added that her Conservative group would no longer work with the government on local government reorganisation and that devolution was “off”.
