Honour the British divers with knighthoods for finding the 12 boys.

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Honour the divers who risked all to save a Thai football team because they felt it was the right thing to do.
Too often stars who are well paid for their craft get the highest honours, not the people who risk all for others just because it’s the right thing to do.

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:
