Rejected petition Knighthood for Stephen Fry.

More details

I want, as do many others in this country, Stephen Fry to be given a knighthood by HM The Queen. Mr Fry has given service to this country that is, in most people's view, worthy of an honour of this sort. Stephen Fry is purely and simply, a British institution. He has been a fixture into the lives of older generations, right down to the youngest people in our nation. From A Bit Of Fry & Laurie, to QI, to Visit Britain adverts, Stephen Fry has proven that he is the Perfect candidate to become 'Sir Stephen Fry'.
