To: Uk prime minister

George cross

Posthumously award the George Cross to PC Keith Palmer of the metropolitan police, who sadly died as a result of injuries received on 23/03/17 whilst on duty at the House of Commons. .

Why is this important?

He upheld the highest traditions of the UK police, in that he put the safety of the public and his sworn duty before his own safety, in attempting to stop an armed man whilst unarmed himself. He carried out that duty and payed the ultimate price in doing so.
