Consider knighting Nigel Farage or a commemorative statue outside Parliament.

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

Nigel Farage has worked tirelessly since 1994 in order to grant the British public a referendum to determine whether or not they are comfortable remaining members of the increasingly undemocratic European Union, against all political and social odds / difficulties.
This petition calls for the recognition of Nigel Farage's efforts (regardless of which side you personally aligned with). As recognition of his efforts, we believe that Nigel Farage is deserving of national recognition as the man that worked tirelessly to grant the United Kingdom a voice. Either via a commemorative statue, his face on our pound notes, knighthood, or other national recognitions.

Why it was rejected

It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.

We can't accept your petition because it asks for someone to be nominated for an honour.

Members of the public can nominate people for honours directly. You can find out how to nominate someone for an honour here:
