LONDON: Business heavyweights including the bosses of Asda and easyJet have been drafted in to advise David Cameron on EU reform, it was revealed last night.
Industry leaders sitting on the Business Advisory Group will be a ‘sounding board’ on issues facing industry – including the renegotiation of Britain’s membership of the European Union.
It will fuel concerns among eurosceptics that the Prime Minister is determined to get a ‘yes’ vote in the in/out referendum and has lined up business chiefs who are in favour of maintaining our ties with Brussels.
