Title: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: Harbottle (Martin) on November 28, 2007, 12:09:36 PM http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Fairport/
Title: Re: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: davidmjs on November 28, 2007, 12:12:40 PM http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Fairport/ As there are, I think, no awards to groups of people (the George Medal to Malta is the only exception I can think of) then I don't think the wording of this makes a lot of sense.

(yes i read the name but it means nothing to me) and why?? petition for something more important, i say.

Title: Re: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: davidmjs on November 28, 2007, 12:37:16 PM petition for something more important, i say. I totally agree. Or follow this procedure with the individuals concerned if you feel that strongly about it.. http://www.honours.gov.uk/nominate.aspx Title: Re: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: schrodingers-cat (Janey) on November 28, 2007, 10:20:55 PM Not sure I like the rogue apostrophe on "islands'"

There's so many of them for stuff like this it's more like a bit of Internet fun than anything serious. Title: Re: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: abby (tank girl) on November 29, 2007, 06:20:47 AM sorry, i'm all for a bit of fun, but this sort of fun makes a mockery of the important issues that would be largely overlooked if it weren't for petitions.
Title: Re: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: PLW (Peter) on November 29, 2007, 01:40:19 PM Of course the likes of Swarb and Ashley should get honours (if we have to put up with such an outdated system). But this ain't the way to go about it.

I think Fairport should get the George Medal. Title: Re: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: mikec on December 02, 2007, 03:22:01 AM Sorry, did you say the George Melly medal Cocker?
If so then I heartily agree ;D Title: Re: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: Ancient Muse (Andy) on December 02, 2007, 12:43:05 PM I think this petition is a waste of time and the wrong way of going about getting "our boys" an award anyway.
Title: Re: Fairport Convention Petition to Downing Street Post by: Joss on December 02, 2007, 11:59:23 PM Cor, lummy, sense of humour failures? Lighten up folks - as if Mr Bean is going to take note of ANY of the petitions which appear on the No. 10 website? It's just another way of them entertaining the masses and keeping the populace quiet while Rome burns - and Government websites cost everyone in the UK £60 a head - well worth while!!
