Bring Public Sector Jobs To Bradford

Closed 516 signatures

What the petition asks

The government have announced that they intend to move in excess of 20,000 public sector jobs to the North of England. Bradford is one of the youngest and most dynamic cities in the North with plenty of space to house a large workforce. We want to ensure Bradford benefits from this resettlement.
We want the government to move a proportion of the public sector jobs to Bradford, which is a young and dynamic city. We also want to see the North levelled up with jobs and investment outside of the core cities, Leeds and Manchester which have both benefited from billions.
