This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government

Rejected petition George Cross or Knighthood for the three British cave rescue divers in Thailand.

Richard Stanton, Robert Harper and John Volanthen, the three cave rescue divers, found the missing Thai schoolchildren. Their heroism and modesty reflects well on Britain and they have given our nation very positive publicity. This is not their first time and such bravery should not go unrewarded.
