We've all seen the email for the petition against the proposed Government road charging scheme... but did anyone see some of the other petitions on there?

Here are two of my personal favorites:

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to stand on his head and juggle ice-cream:

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to replace the national anthem with 'Gold' by Spandau Ballet:
http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/goldanthem/

Both have around 3500 signatures at the moment...!

 

im going to sign the spandau ballet one

 

We, the people of Britain, feel that our current National Anthem has lost a bit of its sparkle.

When we are confronted by the rare occasion of us winning a medal at the Olympics, we all have to mumble through "God Save The Queen", well God help us in 2012!

We would thereby like to table the suggestion that we change the National Anthem to something more modern and appropriate and that will re-invigorate our pride.

What we specifically want to see, is that the National Anthem be changed in favour of "Gold" by Spandau Ballet.

Further, we would like our National Olympic Committee to decree that Tony Hadley is the only person permitted to handle medal ceremonies where the National Anthem is played.

We don't mind what he wears when he does this, but preference is given towards a a gold colured suit.

Sincerely,

 

some people have too much time
