Petition Details

Almost every single person in this country has supported the government by abiding by the lockdown rules. Let the government give us something back.
A national bank holiday for everyone would be a yearly reminder of how this country worked together during the coronavirus pandemic,

Additional Information

The start of 2020 has been a real struggle for the entire United Kingdom. Government included. This coronavirus pandemic has almost wiped out the whole infrastructure of this country.
