I don't see the point to put a petition on-line to later stated that it is not possible! why put it on in the first place then? that's to me it's pure nonsense. Now, his argument saying : it would also be impossible to decide which of thousands of figures in our country's history, who were not knighted during their lifetimes, should retrospectively deserve such recognition. whatever we like or not Blair this is a good point, but to that I will say that it might be difficult but not possible, if there are enough signatures for these personalities why not! The argument that you have to be alive to receive a knighthood is very disappointing in the way that you should get it because of what you achieved and the fact to be alive or not don't in any way changed these achievements...Knighthoo d should be given to people by the people, not decided by a bunch of bureaucrats in expansive suits...
