Rejected petition All shops and companies should be closed on christmas day and boxing day

More details

All shops should be closed boxing day so families can enjoy the christmas day and evening with famlies. Christmas evening celebrations are ruined because people have to go to work the next day, they cannot visit relatives who live further away because of work the next day. The christmas holidays should be for 2 days.
