What the petition asks
Give Knighthood to Captain Tom Moore for completing 100 laps of garden to raise money for NHS before 100th birthday.
Because of his outstanding achievement for raising over £12million for the NHS in these current times of crisis and being a beacon of light to the nation.
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.
