Tow of Germany's biggest industry lobbies issue a joint statement on keeping Britain in the EU

Both BDA and BDI have said that they want the UK to stay in Europe and they see the UK's demands as sensible. They are urging EU leaders to seek an agreement.

That's some big backing from Germany and Cameron will click his heels at this news as he meets with Junker today. I'd go so far to say that It might well have given the pound a little lift from the lows.

There will be much love now towards Ze Germans, at least until any of the home nations next meet them in the footy ;-)
