Walter Tull petition: 10,000 strong!

Thanks to you we’ve reached another milestone with the Walter Tull petition: 10k individuals throughout the country have now asked the Prime Minister David Cameron to consider posthumously awarding Walter Tull the Military Cross for which he was recommended.

A few weeks ago, I met with Tull’s biographer Phil Vasili, who both applauded the efforts of our petition and pledged to work together to ensure the legacy of this most extraordinary man is duly honoured.

Shortly we will be writing an open letter to the Prime Minister asking him directly to consider the merits for Tull’s award, which were highlighted by his senior Commanders and the men who served under Tull.

But before that, let’s have another surge of support via the petition to let our PM know how much we care.
