The people, exercising their right at the request of the Natural Environment Research Council, have spoken. The NERC has decided to ignore the will of the populace, leaving us only one logical course of action. We the undersigned hereby request that venerable explorer and wildlife champion Sir David Attenborough change his name to Sir Boaty McBoatface.

THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE THE LEGACY OF THE NAME. DONT LET THE GOVERNMENT STOP FUN.

The people have spoken and democracy must prevail. Attenborough would probably get a good laugh out of it anyway.

It doesn't take a brain surgeon to know this is the right thing to do!
