Give Captain Tom Moore an knighthood

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like to see the government issue honours to Captain Tom Moore and request the Queen to do a special public broadcast giving Captain Tom Moore a knighthood. To recognise how he has united the United Kingdom to help or NHS.

I believe the efforts of a war veteran to bring us united to help support our NHS deserves the recognition publicly and should be televised with the current situation. The Queen should honour this man for all services to our country.

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.
