Remove 'Mrs' and 'Miss' on all government docs & forms and only use 'Ms' instead

Petition Details

The use of 'Miss' and 'Mrs' is outdated and indirectly sexist - they have no place in British government forms and documents in this era of equality. 'Miss' and 'Mrs' should be removed on government forms and documents, and be replaced by 'Ms' only; similar to 'Mr' and the now disused 'Master'.
