Have the winston churchill statue vandal arrested on high treason charges!

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Someone has vandalized the Winston Churchill statue. Without that man we would most definitely be under Nazi rule now with 0 rights. The vandal should be tracked down and arrested on treason or the highest possible charge!
Churchill served in:
•Mahdist war.
•2nd Boer war (POW)
•1st world war;
Galipoli
western front

He then got into goverment as home secretary and also prime minister TWICE. And lead this country to Victory against the Nazi's in WW2.

If it wasnt for this man we may not have been here today. The Great has 100% Gone from Great Britain.

If someone can vandalise a great man that fought for our country, they shouldn't have the rights to claim to be British. He was a hero, and a leader.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

Decisions on whether to arrest and prosecute alleged offenders is a matter for local police forces and the Crown Prosecution Service, not the UK Government or Parliament.
