Rejected petition UK National Holiday for March 29
Rejected on
The United Kingdom, unlike many other nations does not have a National Day, such as an Independence Day. It is therefore proposed that this void be filled with the declaration of March 29 as the day the United Kingdom restored its independence and sovereignty with its departure from the EU.
