Petition PM: Make Jerusalem the English National Anthem
February 27, 2009 —There is a petition to sign at the Number 10 site to make Jerusalem the English national anthem.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to make Jerusalem the English national anthem.
There is currently no English national anthem while God Save The Queen is the British national anthem. We the undersigned would like to see Jerusalem made the English national anthem, ans used instead of God Save The Queen at all occasions when the English national anthem should be played, e.g when the English nation are playing at sport (for example versus Scotland or Wales, where the playing of the British national anthem is quite stupid as it’s partly their anthem too). God Save The Queen will still be used when the country of Britain is being represented, but England will always be represented by the playing of Jerusalem.
The creator of this petition is an Alex Heylin and the deadline to sign is the 26 August 2009
