Petition Action

Block the sale of AstraZeneca to foreign Companies

Additional Information

Successful, British Exporting Manufacturers such as AstraZeneca should remain in British hands.

It is high time our government blocked the sale of Nationally important Manufacturing Assets.

How on earth will our country ever increase our exports if we continually allow the sale of successful companies to overseas concerns.

An overseas sale will inevitably lead to a reduction in British jobs and an overall reduction in taxes collected by the British Government.

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

BIS have recently accepted a transfer from HMT on the same subject.
