Ban former PM Tony Blair from attending any military related event or parade.

What the petition asks
Tony Blair took the UK to war with Iraq based on inaccurate and poorly researched evidence. This conflict and the later Afghanistan campaign cost the lives of many servicemen and civilians. Many people find his attendance at these events offensive and an insult to those who gave their lives.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
