A memorial to be erected in Parliament Square to remember the NHS workers who gave their lives fighting this virus. The memorial to have every name of every victim from the NHS.

This would be a fitting tribute to the people who passed away and somewhere for their families to go and remember them proudly. Along with members of the public who can also go and pay their respects.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Decisions about installations on Parliament Square Garden are a matter for the London Assembly, not the Government or House of Commons.
