Protect the graves of civilian war dead for the World wars

Protect the graves of civilian war dead for the World wars

The Issue

Having recently discovered that some civilian war graves are being overfilled for re-use,  we believe these should be rewarded due respect as are Military graves. Graves and a memorial have already been lost at New Southgate cemetery, are currently under threat at Camberwell New and old Cemeteries (of Southwark Council) and proposed for reuse at Manor Park cemetery including the graves of Columbia market victims and probably of the Bethnal Green tube disaster.

 Whilst those in Tower Hamlets cemetery are protected as a nature reserve in Tower Hamlets
