Change the British National Anthem to Paradise Lost by Steps

Petition Details

There's no question - Buzz was by far Steps' best studio album to date. But hidden beneath all the hits (Better The Devil, Summer Of Love, Here and Now etc) is Paradise Lost, a song that deserves much more recognition than it gets.. and what better way than by making it our national anthem?

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

This isn’t something that the UK Government or Parliament would be able to do. The use of the present National Anthem is a matter of tradition rather than having any legal or constitutional status.
