Rejected petition Change our National Anthem

A diversity anthem that represents all of us. That has more meaning for this country and when sung it will give our players a real boost. The crowds in the stadium & the people at home will get a fantastic feeling, that sends a burning tingling sensation.

More details

Our National Anthem God save our King, when sang at sporting events is so old & lacks any motivation, player's appear to look uninterested.
With our country being more a diverse country we need our anthem to represents all people of England, not just a monarch.
