Rejected petition Reinstate Monday 4th May 2020 as bank holiday. People already have plans.

My village has a long running and very extensive May Festival. Plans for next year are already advanced. I am sure that thousands of others have planned events (weddings etc) around that weekend. Just add another Bank Holiday. Bank Holidays are expensive but do also create revenue.
