Petition update, 08 May 2007

More details from petition creator

It is absurd that, in a Nation made up of semi-independant Countries, England does not have an anthem. For that reason I propse The hymn by William Blake and Hubert Parry, also known as 'And did Those Feet' be acknowledged as our anthem
