Change national anthem to Jerusalem

Change the national anthem from God Save The Queen to Jerusalem

This petition was rejected on 26th May 2020 for not being a Government or Parliamentary matter

The Petition Committee commented:
This isn’t something that the UK Government or Parliament would be able to do. The use of the present National Anthem is a matter of tradition rather than having any legal or constitutional status.

The current national anthem is very boring and does not inspire much, particularly at sporting events in which many other countries have more exciting anthems. God Save The Queen is like a steady drone whilst Jerusalem can be built up like a crescendo and sung far more proudly.
