Knight Captain Tom Moore and have a new hospital for the NHS named after him.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Knight Captain Tom Moore and have a new hospital for the NHS named after him.
This gentleman has epitomised all that is great about the armed forces in this country. He has showed amazing character to not only be aware of what the country and the NHS are currently going through but also got up and done something that he could do about it. Captain Moore we salute you ❤️

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.
