Time for British Honours for British WW1 Veterans

Our two surviving World War One Veterans, Harry Patch and Henry Allingham have rightly received honours from France and Belgium but nothing from their own country.
As a matter of urgency we need to convince the Prime Minister that they deserve special recognition for their contribution to our freedom as this is a matter of national pride. To this end I have started a petition which you can sign on the government website. Look for WW1VeteransGift (one word).
Please join us and make this happen.:T
