Petition 1 Week Holiday in August

More details

I believe that August is a very slow period for majority of businesses within the UK so there should be a week off(public holiday) which incorporates the August bank holiday.

By having this week off it will allow people to relax and enjoy time with their family and friends as it school and Universities are also closed during this period. This would also be similar to countries like Italy and Turkey where they have a week off for Easter and Eid.
