Rejected petition Erect statue o fAneurin "Nye" Bevan in Parliament Square

More details

Aneurin "Nye" Bevan is a truly unrecognised national hero. In creating the National Health Service as Clement Atlee's Secretary of Health, Bevan has undoubtedly shaped the safe and healthy Great Britain we see today. A statue in his honour should not be seen as a party-political issue but should be on by all sides of both houses, as with Winston Churchill and David Lloyd George. The bird-dung covered statue in Cardiff town centre is not enough to commemorate this great man's life.
