I couldn't find it either, but I did hear George mention it earlier.

I like some of the names of the petitions aswell

"settle general elections in the wrestling ring, 'royal rumble' style"

and

"Prove that a Monkey is more effective than Gordon Brown"

lol

I think an over-the-top-rope battle royale would be a good way to settle who should lead the country, even though a morbidly obese, secretary humping former-union man would probably win it, since I can't see anybody getting him over the top rope.

yeh they haven't e-mailed me to confirm the petition, so I'm not sure if they've rejected it, by I can't think of what grounds?

this is the e-mail..

Hi,

I'm sorry to inform you that your petition has been rejected.

Your petition was classed as being in the following categories:

* Outside the remit or powers of the Prime Minister and
Government *

mmm ... I wonder if technically true. Downing Street "COULD" recommend
GG to be next Prime Minister. And if all ministers and PM recommended it,
it would likely happen. I wish the petition was worded that the Prime Minister should
recommend you as the preferred candidate to be his successor.

Can someone resubmit it ?

What nonsense, as if the stuff about monkeys and wrestling rings are INSIDE the remit of the PM. Blair is clearly terrified of Galloway (as well he should be) and can't bear to even see his name, this is a biased decision for sure.

Which is probably why the BBC won't invite GG to be on Question time next week {even after discussing it with him last week). George just said on TalkSport he has not had a confirmation of his invitation,
