Petition Close all retail shops on Sundays

All retail shops should be closed on Sundays. Shops under a certain square footage have been allowed to open on Sundays since the Sunday Trading Act of 1994. This immediately enabled retailers to treat Sunday like a normal trading day. This should not be the case. Sundays should be the day of rest.
