Rejected petition Give Tom Moore a Knighthood
As of 16/04/20, 99 year old Captain Tom Moore has raised more than £12m for charity by walking 100 lads of his garden. No one should be more deserving of a Knighthood that this man.
More details
Just walking 100 steps is a feat itself for someone of his age so to do 100 laps of his garden and then on top of that raise more than £12m for the NHS (and still counting) is amazing. Many people every year get awarded a Knighthood but no one deserves one more than Captain Tom.
