Date of last Thursday clap for the keyworkers and NHS a bank holiday In UK
I would like the government and parliament to understand the hard work and for everyone to be allowed a bank holiday to remember and appreciate how the country came together and the key workers risked their lives to save the country from COVID-19 as well as the people who died from deadly virus.
The corona virus outbreak is a pandemic. The period of tragedy touched each and everyone somehow and many risked their lives to save the country, some unfortunately lost their lives. Just like our world wars, religious festivals and times of celebration, this should be considered as a very important time in the history of the UK.
