Petition British Companies to be Chosen First for Government Projects, by Law

More details

There are many examples of HM Governement projects that result in work being contracted from foreign companies.

This petition would see all public money projects completed by default by British companies - exceptions only granted where highly notable reasoning can be given (and non-fiscal, as money pad to British companies is money paid to Britain!).

An Act should be passed which states that for Engineering or other projects, they are to be completed by British firms - unless an exception is given, and so highly worthwhile of exporting contracts that it can be agreed upon in the House of Commons.
