Rejected petition more holidays for england

More details

I think Britain should have more holidays, as people in Europe have a lot more public holidays, They have an increased productivity output and are much more relaxed than people in the UK.
Also other countries within the UK such as Wales have St. David's Day, Ireland has St. Patrick Day, and St. Andrew's for the Scot's. But yet we are not allowed to St. George's day I say let's celebrate our national day!
If we have more holidays we would be happier as a nation...
