Make March 29th a public holiday from March 29th 2019

Petition Details

this is the day we officially leave the EU therefore it is only fitting that one of the most important days in modern history is marked as a national holiday.

Additional Information

Speaker John Bercow said the EU (Withdrawal) Bill, which repeals the 1972 European Communities Act through which Britain became a member of the bloc, had received royal assent from Queen Elizabeth II.

The bill transfers decades of European law onto British statute books, and also enshrines Brexit day in British law as March 29, 2019 at 11pm (2300 GMT) -- midnight Brussels time.

Prime Minister Theresa May said the approval was a "historic moment for our country, and a significant step towards delivering on the will of the British people".
