Adopt "Jerusalem" as the official National Anthem of England.

Adopt "Jerusalem" as the official National Anthem of England. — 6 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

​"Adopt 'Jerusalem' as the official national anthem for England. This would provide England with its own distinct anthem for sporting and cultural events, separate from the UK’s 'God Save the King'."

Additional details

England needs its own anthem. While "God Save the King" is for the UK, Scotland and Wales have their own. "Jerusalem" stands for the English people and our land. It is already used at the Commonwealth Games and by sports teams. It would give us a distinct voice and pride that belongs to us.
