Petition Close the UK Parliament in London and move to Birmingham

I believe Parliament isn’t working and we need a new one

More details

I think the UK should have a new Parliament in Birmingham. Reasons are:

A: The one in London isn’t working
B: Better road and rail links
C: More central for everyone in the UK to get to
D: The old Parliament building is knackered and covered in scaffolding and full of rats
E: Birmingham was once the workshop of the world so we like getting stuff done ✅ like for example sorting debates which have been raging for three years!
