Rejected petition For MP Helen Joanne "Jo" Cox (RIP) to be posthumously awarded the George Cross.

MP Jo Cox died serving British democracy and throughout her career was dedicated to humanitarian causes. Therefore we the undersigned feel it is only right and fitting to posthumously award her the GC, the highest gallantry award for civilians.

More details

If reports are accurate that an individual came to Mrs Cox's aid then if appropriate that individual should be considered for a GC also.
