I'm not sure what the point in this petition is: surely responsibility for the design and circulation of currency lies solely with the Bank of England and not HM Treasury?
- schiffern 15y ago"We therefore call upon the Treasury to request the Bank of England to consider depicting Alan Turing when Series F £10 banknotes are designed."
- estel 15y agoBut we shouldn't want the Treasury to have a say in this!? Allowing the Treasury to have a political say in what the Bank can put on their banknotes opens up a whole can of worms that it would be infinitely preferable to be left unopened.
- schiffern 15y agoThey still wouldn't "have a say"; it's simply a request. I admit ignorance of English political delicacies, however.
