Rejected petition Grant a Bank Holiday to mark the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle are due to wed in Spring 2018. For the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in 2011, the UK was given an additional Bank Holiday on 29 April. We would like the Government to repeat the honour for this happy occasion.
