Rejected petition Withdraw Richard Kylea Cowie Jr.‘s (AKA Wiley) MBE due to his antisemitism

Richard Kylea Cowie Jr. (AKA Wiley) should have his MBE withdrawn due to anti-semitic views

More details

“Wiley” has posted publicly on multiple social media platforms his extremely anti-semitic views. Due to this very serious and delicate subject, I do not believe he possesses the correct moral values that a MBE should have and that his MBE should be withdrawn. As a well known public figure who holds a MBE, this has brought the honours system in to disrepute.
