Petition Action

Change the National Anthem to Jerusalem.

The national anthem for England should be replaced with Jerusalem but keep it the same for the United Kingdom.

I believe that having a separate national anthem to the United Kingdom will magnify the sense of patriotism in the country.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

The use of the present National Anthem is a matter of tradition rather than having any legal or constitutional status.
