Rejected petition Give Lee Rigby a full military ceremonial funeral

More details

Lee Rigby should receive a full military ceremonial funeral on the scale of the funeral of former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

As a fallen soldier Lee and his family deserve to see that they have the support and the sympathy of the people of the UK. A full ceremonial funeral also will be a show of defiance to those who's only aim is to destroy.
