Rejected petition Make June 23rd a national holiday in the U.K every year. Our 'independence day'

Rejected on 4 July 2016

With the recent referendum in the U.K being voted in favour of 'leave' i think the u.k should celebrate this every year, as our 'independence day'

Whatever way you voted, this should be a time to celebrate being British. A time to celebrate our culture and history. Please sign this petition to make this happen!
