Rejected petition Call a bank holiday to celebrate the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

It’s been widely reported that Theresa May will not call for an extra bank holiday in 2018 to celebrate the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

This petition demands that a Bank holiday is created to allow the whole country to celebrate this important historical occasion together in 2018.

More details

This will likely be the last royal wedding of such stature and importance to take place for two decades, and the last that an entire generation of UK citizens will live to enjoy.
