http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/bovril/ Since 1874 bovril has provided us with years of pleasure. As a mug at home, on toast, or as a worthy accompaniment to our pie at the match. Despite all this the creator of our beloved beverage is NOT I repeat NOT a sir. I know, I was as shocked as you probably are. So this petition is to try to get a knighthood for James Lawson Johnston. Please Help.
