Rejected petition Save Longtown MOD

More details

During all the conflicts and unrest throughout the world with the threat of terrorism, the Government in their wisdom have decided to cut back on the Armed Forces and their suppliers and move all the work from Longtown, Cumbria to our sister depot in Warwickshire.
This not only affects over 300 M.O.D. employees and their families employed at the local ammunition depot at Longtown but also the local area and economy.
Please sign the petition to keep Longtown depot open, to keep work in the local area and most importantly don't cut the supply line to our frontline troops.
