We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to replace the national anthem with 'Gold' by Spandau Ballet. More details
Submitted by David Kitchen – Deadline to sign up by: 15 May 2007 – Signatures: 6,785
We, the people of Britain, feel that our current National Anthem has lost a bit of its sparkle.
When we are confronted by the rare occasion of us winning a medal at the Olympics, we all have to mumble through "God Save The Queen", well God help us in 2012!
We would thereby like to table the suggestion that we change the National Anthem to something more modern and appropriate and that will re-invigorate our pride.
What we specifically want to see, is that the National Anthem be changed in favour of "Gold" by Spandau Ballet.
Further, we would like our National Olympic Committee to decree that Tony Hadley is the only person permitted to handle medal ceremonies where the National Anthem is played.
We don't mind what he wears when he does this, but preference is given towards a a gold colured suit.
Sincerely,
Because there are so many signatories, only the most recent 500 are shown on this page.
