Make "Jerusalem" England's official national anthem by law

Closed 99 signatures

What the petition asks

Two years ago, a bill passed the first reading backing the call to consider an official national anthem for the nation of England to be played for major UK and Commonwealth events. This petition builds on that bill, and humbly asks to make 'Jerusalem' the official national anthem of England.
