Force all retail to close on Boxing Day

Petition Details

With the government allowing families to spend time together at Christmas, I believe they should also force all retail shops to close on Boxing Day. Many will remain open purely for unnecessary financial gain. There is no need for shops to be open on Boxing Day

Additional Information

If the government are allowing families to spend time together over the Christmas period, it’s unfair on the families who work in retail when they have to work on Boxing Day
