We demand that Greenwich Council reinstates the Lee Rigby Memorial

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

This was the first memorial to Lee Rigby and has been made and visited by people from all over the country. The memorial is situated at the spot that Lee was murdered. Rather than being unsightly as the Council claims the site is regularly maintained by a number of dedicated locals.

The only other memorial is in a Church that is currently closed and isn't accessible 24 hours a day as the Memorial is.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. This is the responsibility of the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

You could raise your issue with a local councillor. You can use this page to find out who the local councillors are, and how to contact them:
