This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can’t accept petitions about appointments, which includes calling for someone to lose their job.

Decisions about individual historical monuments, statues, plaques and street names are a matter for the local authority in which they are located and private landowners, not the UK Government or Parliament.

If you want to raise concerns about a particular historical monument or statue, or request a new monument or statue be erected, you should contact your local authority about this.

The Local Government Association has published an advice note to help councils work to ensure all sections of the community feel heard by decision-makers and each other: www.local.gov.uk/topics/community-safety/statues

We have published the following petitions, which you might like to sign:

Protect all monuments and statues from being taken down: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/325814

Make it a specific offence to desecrate national flags, symbols and monuments: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/325545
