What the petition asks
Nominate war veteran Captain Tom Moore for a knighthood for raising over 5 million pounds for the NHS & for his service for our country
As a serving war veteran as a captain for his country & raised more than five million pounds for the NHS I feel it would be a fantastic honour of a man of 99 years of age to be put forward for a knighthood
Why it was rejected
It was about honours or appointments, which petitions cannot cover.
We know lots of people want to petition for Colonel Moore to receive an honour, but the Government will only accept individual nominations, not petitions, so we can’t publish your petition.
