Change the National Anthem to "Rule Britannia".

"Rule Britannia!" is a rousing and already widely recognised song that celebrates our nation, and Britons are proud to unite behind it. I therefore propose officially changing the United Kingdom's national anthem to "Rule Britannia!".

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 "God Save the Queen" focuses on one person, great though she is, rather than on our nation. It has an uninspiring and unoriginal tune that does not embody the greatness of this country in all its glory. Some even see it as divisive (with the original version calling for rebellious Scots to be crushed).
