National Bank Holiday to celebrate Key Workers and NHS Staff after Coronavirus.
Let us never forget those in society, without which we would never have got through this crisis. Provide a dedicated Bank Holiday celebrating these people, who give so much and receive so little.
These people are holding the country together, doing us all proud whilst risking their lives to enforce routine, keeping people safe, saving loved ones and ensuring people have what they need. If we can celebrate Guy Fawkes annually, we can celebrate most definitely celebrate the efforts of these amazing people during this difficult and uncertain time.
