Rejected petition Rename Manchester Airport as Mark E Smith International Airport

Many airports have honoured local cultural icons by naming airports - John Lennon Airport in Liverpool, Pablo Picasso Airport in Malaga to name but two. In the light of the death of Manchester's greatest cultural icon, we call upon Manchester Airport to be renamed after Mark E Smith of The Fall.
