Petition Action

When the country gets 0 confirmed cases becomes "National key workers" bank hol.

Petition Details

On the day the UK has 0 confirmed cases of Covid-19 we should have an annual "key workers" Bank holiday. Pubs, restaurants and all other services that the government has told to close today cannot open that day. Giving employees a deserved day off but be able to spend the day with family and friends

Additional Information

Unfortunately emergency services will still have to work but with pubs etc being banned then hopefully fewer staff will be needed.
