Rejected petition: Create a moment of national remembrance of D-Day
Rejected on
To mark D-Day with a national moment of remembrance every year on 6th June with a minute’s silence at 11am
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
The Government has no responsibility for such minutes' silence. These are often promoted by private bodes or charities and sometimes become part of a society's cultural memory.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
