Make June 15th (signing of the Magna Carta) a bank holiday

Petition Details

Magna Carta is the foundation of our country. It is the beginning of our parliament, the oldest parliament in the world, and the origins of how we view society. So far the only memorial to it was made by the Americans who understand its importance and we should notice the Magna Carta's importance.
