Rejected petition Using the fourth pillar of Trafalgar Square to honour Sir David Attenborough.

Use its influence to help with my campaign to honour Sir David Attenborough by erecting a permanent statue of him on the Fourth plinth of Trafalgar Square instead of meaningless temporary works of art.

More details

Sir David Attenborough has been a giant in highlighting the amazing natural world in which we live and the dangers and threats civilization is posing to its very existence. Many of us would not be aware of the breathtaking beauty and diversity of our planet were it not for his inspirational media work.

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
