Rejected petition Stop Britain First from exploiting the murder of Fusilier Lee Rigby.

In Britain First's election broadcast for London Mayor last night, they once again used Fusilier Lee Rigby as a political tool, despite having been told repeatedly not to by his family. Their flagrant disregard for the family's wishes must be stopped.
