Important:
This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition Celebratory Parades for Scientists
More details
We should celebrate great scientific achievements AT LEAST as much as we do footballers/athletes.
I propose we have a ticker-tape style parade, with crowds and TV coverage, once a year, for UK based scientists that have made an amazing breakthrough/cured a disease/discovered a fundamental truth about the universe.
These people should be honoured, publicly, for helping the entire species.

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
