Rejected petition Make St George a Bank Holiday in England
St Andrew's, St Patrick's, St David's... Why England doesn't seem to care about St George? It would be nice to have a Bank Holiday to celebrate it, why not doing it like the Catalans giving books and roses to the loved ones?
More details
To celebrate traditions, to bring people together, to connect holidays to something beyond a simple Monday off.
