An extra bank holiday every year and to be called Queen Elizabeth Day
Our longest reigning monarch will always be remembered but why not name a bank holiday in mark of respect.
The Jubilee in 2022 was amazing. The whole country came together to celebrate the late Queen Elizabeth's 70th year. Once again the country came together and mourned her loss in September 2022. She was an inspiration to us all. She vowed to serve her country until the day she died and she kept her promise despite poor health. I think it's only fitting that she have a special day once year forever.
