Rejected petition Mark Armistice Day 11th November as a Bank Holiday.

On 11th November 1918, the Great War ended. With the centenary of the end of the Great War occurring next year, we believe that Armistice Day should marked in our national calendar as a Bank Holiday. This would fall on the nearest Monday to the 11th November.
