What the petition asks
The UK government has purchased a £12m luxury apartment in New York for a British diplomat to live in while negotiating US trade deals. The government should sell this apartment immediately, buy the trade commissioner an apartment valued at no more than £2m, and put the remaining £10m to better use.
