  He already had an official apology from the prime minister in 2009. Many people want the conviction off the record, and it had to be done through a pardon because he cannot appeal or be tried again, and the law in effect at the time was not violated. The petition to pardon is here http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/23526 http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/23526
