We are in the midst of a global pandemic and its a huge heartfelt gesture from Captain Tom Moore...... He hasn't long left so let us give him some payback!!
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.
