Change the English National Anthem to Jerusalem

Additional Information

During national sporting events, Scottish teams sing "Flower of Scotland" and Welsh teams sing "Land of my Fathers". However English teams sing the British national anthem "God Save The Queen".

The aim of this petition is to encourage the government to change the national anthem of England to "Jerusalem" and to use God Save The Queen to represent British sports teams.
