Rejected petition The Debasement of the late Sir Jimmy Savile

More details

I propose that if the numerous allegations against the late celebrity are deemed to have any validity - he should be posthumously stripped of his Knighthood.

Although I am aware that the title died with him, it would be a National disgrace if this individual was proven to be a child abuser and allowed to retain such an honorific.
