This government has repeatedly failed to provide an answer as to whether the New Medium Helicopter contract will be awarded to Leonardo.
Time and time again, I have met with ministers, spoken in parliament, and submitted written questions demanding an answer. Yet we are still waiting.
I have decided that enough is enough. More than 3000 jobs are at risk, along with the £320 million Leonardo contributes to Yeovil’s GDP. We all deserve an answer.
It is why I have created a petition, calling on the government to award the New Medium Helicopter (NMH) contract to Leonardo, which you can find here:

By signing this petition, you are sending a powerful message: that Yeovil will not be ignored and our voices will be heard.
If you agree with us, please sign and share this petition. We need your support.
