Rejected petition: Change the National Anthem from God Save The King to 'Good Enough' by Dodgy.
Rejected on
Change the National Anthem from God Save The King to 'Good Enough' by 90s Britpoppers, Dodgy.
The lyrics to God Save the King are no longer relevant to a deeply divided country. Whereas;
"If it's good enough for you, it's good enough for me
It's good enough for two, it's what I want to see
If it's good enough for you, it's good enough for me
It's good enough for two, it's what I want to see"
Will bring people together in love and harmony.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The use of the present National Anthem is a matter of tradition rather than having any legal status.
