108 ED ABRAMSIt's the very least we can do, the MM's have shown what can be done when you say enough is enough, everyone can learn a lesson from your courage.

110 Elizabeth MannWe must make this happen
111 Simon Rose
112 Anthony H Moore
113 Richard Beddall.This country needs a lot more hero'es like Steve Thoburn.
114 James Hemphill
115 John RichardsMore power to you over something that should never have happened in the first place. Perhaps the council concerned with the prosecution will sign the petition to ease their guilty conscience - perhaps

117 w georgeASt long last sanity prevails.There was never any justification for banning imperial measurements which are readily understood by the majority of the adult population. When petrol stations started switching to litres only. I ceased buying from those which did not CLEARLY show gallons-sadly, I had to go along with buying in litres when I had no alternative.The company that in future has pumps with both ltres and gallons(UK) will Iam sure gain customers at the expense of the metric maniacs i.e.govt bureaucrats!
118 Edward HuxleyI hope this petition will succeed
119 Mathilde IvesonWhy was Steven Thoburn ever charged in the first place? He is a hero not a criminal. A posthumous Royal Pardon is a must.
120 Robert TempleThis man died to defend common sense against the insane tyranny of mindless bureaucrats. He also 'died for his country', just as much as any soldier in any war ever did. He should be awarded a posthumous medal.
121 Mr David Khan jarvisThis man was hounded by a ridiculous mis-application of the law as our bureaucrats (mis)read it, resulting in his death.
122 ROGER LEDGERWell done all of you !
123 Carol HewsonI am unable to understand why we Brits always do as we are told in Europe when we see all the other members flouting the law. I was in France recently & they defied the no smoking rule which came in on 1st May!! I was in a bar and most people in there were smoking. As a reformed smoker I was looking forward to a drink in a smoke free zone. I back the Metric Martyrs all the way & my condolences go to Steve's family. How dare our government hound these people in this way & not make sure other members conform to the rules.
124 terry kendallSteve Thorburn and the other Metric Martyrs deserve a Royal Pardon for their 'crime' of selling goods in imperial units. We have had enough EU interference in our lives, which has been wrongfully condoned by successive UK governments.
125 J B WillcoxA Pardon is the very least that should be done.It should never been done in the first place.

131 Richard WorkmanJust recognise that you were WRONG. Also recognise that the British people have had enough of this mad European experiment.
132 Anthony TaylorThey should demand compensation
133 Mr Mrs Thomas bratbyImperial measures are within Stonehenge
134 Peter Whitfield
135 John Mills
136 Val CowellLets prove that Britsh justice isn't totally lost to the British people despite our membership of the wretched European Union.
137 Peter ManchesterThese people must receive a pardon if any justice remains in the U.K.
138 bob isgate
139 A.H.LeverIt is time to bring back British Government to its former task of looking after British customs and people
140 B. Mildwater
141 Bill BurrowsIf there is any justice in this world the European Commission should insist on the pardon. However, there is non eand they wont.

145 Simon HoobermanGiven that compulsory metrication is not being pursued, thank goodness, it makes no sense at all to have these convictions hanging over people who did nothing wrong.
146 Henry Bicket

148 Leonard WelshSteve was caring for the old citizens, it was a diabolical liberty taking legal action against him and the others.
