I'd be signing that petition although imo it'd be more appropriate to have a statue of his daughter, big smile on her face, arm around the her kids one side, the other raised waving a wad of money. Not to leave Captain Tom out the plinth on which they stand would be in shape of his coffin.
A symbol that far from being cowered by covid and the country's sky high rate of death the British entrepreneurial spirit was never broken and many rose up to make a nice few quid on the side. The statue would not only serve as a monument to modern Britain but imo it'd be quite touching at the same time.
Indeed, another example of eyebrows not being allowed to be raised.
