Petition · past parliament
Parliament to ask that the Honour given to Glynn Williams be rescinded.
Rejected
16 signatures
What the petition asks
In the recent Honours List, Mr Williams was awarded the Order of the Bath. Mr Williams contributed to, if not responsible for, the Windrush scandal and the tardy correction of it. It is entirely wrong for civil servants to be rewarded for poor if not disgraceful performance.
