Proposal to change August Bank Holiday to Alan Turing Day

Additional Information

Not only did Alan Turing make probably the greatest individual contribution to winning the second World |War but his innovations in computing were equally remarkable. After the appalling injustice done to him due to his sexuality it is time to honour him and belatedly reward him for his contribution to the United Kingdom.
