Stop the removal of any statues and/or monuments.

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

Stop local councils and authorities, schools, collages and universities and any government funded building or land from removing any statues of historical figures and monuments to historical events just because they don’t comply with modern beliefs and sensitivities.

It is wrong to erase or re-write our history just because we don’t like it.
