Rejected petition Change the national anthem from God Save the King to Mr Brightside.
Change the national anthem to something that everyone in the UK knows how to songs, ergo is more representative than the current tune, which is musically boring and unexciting, aswell as being poor at representing the UKs current multi-cultural society.

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.
