Rejected petition Give Ben Parkinson a knighthood not Olympians
Rejected on
To award Ben Parkinson a knighthood. Ben gave his legs for his country and is awarded a MBE. Wiggins does nothing but ride a bike and gets Knighted. Do we care so little for our injured soldiers that we award them a MBE which is of little importance. It is time for the government to do what is right
