What the petition asks
Rod suggests the Grace song that he has covered on his latest album is not an IRA rebel song.
This is both insulting and disrespectful to the families and victims of the IRA atrocities.
Rod also claims to have done his research before deciding to include the controversial track on the album?

He saw how humans treat humans? Remind me again, these were men who led an armed uprising killing hundreds of Irish civilians as well as army service personnel. They behaved like animals, therefore they should be treated like animals.
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 stripped of an honour.
