As
business leaders and entrepreneurs responsible for millions of British
jobs, we believe that the Government is right to seek a new deal for the
EU and for the UK’s role in Europe. Far from being a threat to our
economic interests, a flexible, competitive Europe, with more powers
devolved from Brussels, is essential for growth, jobs and access to
markets. We therefore welcome the launch of Business for Britain’s
campaign for real change in the EU and urge all political parties to
join in committing themselves to a national drive to renegotiate the
terms of Britain’s membership of the EU.
