Petition Action

Repeal the Sunday trading laws

Additional Information

Shops should be free to open when they want and for as long as they want. It should not be a function of government to dictate when and how long shops should open. I propose this as a Church going Christian as I believe that Sunday should not be keep as a “special” day to practice a Christian belief. There is also the fact that extended trading hours will be a much needed boost for the economy.
