Rejected petition Celebrate Waterloo 18 June 2015

More details

The Battle of Waterloo was not just a British victory, it included Germans, Dutch and Belgians, whilst Austrians, Russians and Spanish troops prepared to join in the defeat of a tyrant, Napoleon Bonaparte. Waterloo was a European victory and should be celebrated as much as VE day. We should celebrate this 200th anniversary with national events, including a religious ceremony at St Paul's.
