Change the National Anthem to the Hymn "I Vow to thee my Country"
I believe that the current National Anthem is not inclusive to the diversity of the population of the country! I served my Queen and Country and am proud of this, but feel that with current national issues regarding colonialism, an anthem to the country would be more acceptable to all.

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.
