Closed Allow Zimbabwe to Lay a Wreath at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Day

Closed on

We want the Government to allow Zimbabwe to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph on Remembrance day.

Allow a representative either an official, or a relative of one of those who died, from Zimbabwe to Lay a Wreath at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Day.

Over 34,000 young men from Southern Rhodesia – both black and white – served in the world wars with an estimated 1,800 losing their lives.

We believe it is disrespectful to those who died, and their families, that they are not represented at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Day because of politics.
