HMRC proposes to move everyone in HMRC in Pudsey, West Yorkshire to Leeds City Centre.
This will result in increased hardship for our staff members, loss of income to the local economy in these towns and will increase congestion in Leeds and add pressure on public transport.
Now, this petition looks pretty damned reasonable to me, actually. Not that I know anything about the specific situation, but assuming the Revenue and Customs are planning that move, the disadvantages mentioned seem quite likely. Publicising the matter via the PM's petitions sounds like a good plan.
What a shame the title's so comic, though ... One has mental pictures of a load of workmen carefully digging round Pudsey and carrying it on the back of artics into the centre of Leeds ...

I read the title of the petition as relating to the mascot for BBC Children in Need, and wondered why it was being relocated.
