Rejected petition olympic holiday
More details
The London 2012 Olympic Games have been an unparralelled success for the UK and created a wave of pride and optimism to be celebrated with a parade on 10th September.
With children back at schools and many at work, wouldn't it be a great celebration to be able to call a National holiday so that the whole nation can celebrate this unique moment?
