Local firms back would prefer Remain vote

Survey shows two thirds of companies advocate UK in the EU

A majority of businesses on the Island would prefer Britain to remain in the EU.

That's according to a survey carried out by the Chamber of Commerce on the Island.

Sixty-six percent of respondents believe the UK should remain in the EU.
