Support the installation of a statue in London dedicated to UK Women Veterans.
Women account for 10-12% for the Armed Forces Community. Yet, there are no gender specific statues that celebrate the contribution of modern day women veterans anywhere in London. Parliament should support the installation of a statue that recognises their service and sacrifice.
Women Veterans are a minority group in the UK Armed Forces. Bizarrely, there are no, post WW2 statue's representing the service sacrifice and contribution of women service personnel or veterans in London.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
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 request the erection of a statue you should contact your local authority about this.
