Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
There is no more worthy a recipient of a knighthood than this man. He has inspired millions and as well as raising in excess of £20 million for the NHS, he is a beacon of hope and light in these troubled times.
Award him a knighthood at the earliest opportunity, preferably on his 100th birthday (April 30th 2020)
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.
