Petition Action

Allow posthumous knighthoods

Additional Information

I believe the law should be changed so as to allow posthumous knighthoods in recognition of great service to the country that, owing to the prevailing culture at the time was not recognised, or that could not be conferred in life owing to sudden death. Worthy recipients should include Alan Turing, Bob Paisley, and Horatio Nelson.
