More details from petition creator
The Western Isles has been dealt a devastating blow to its economy after the Ministry of Defence announced that 125 jobs are to be axed at the Hebrides missile range in South Uist.
It will mean one in six jobs in the southern isles economy is to be lost, after the MoD confirmed plans to halve the workforce at the base by controlling firing operations remotely from a rival base at Aberporth, south Wales.
