Rejected petition Reconsider Richard Branson's knighthood
Rejected on
Richard Branson has responded to a government decision with ill-grace and a flurry of PR activity to try and gain his own way. His actions in trying to overturn a democratically elected government are reprehensible and he should, therefore, be stripped of his knighthood.
