Rejected petition We, the British people, politely demand Harry’s wedding be a public holiday
Rejected on
There are three reasons why we should have a day off for Harry’s wedding.
Firstly, so those who want to watch it can do so on live tellie. Secondly, so those who don’t can enjoy a beautiful (optimistic) spring day. And finally, to demonstrate that the oldest kid shouldn’t always get everything.
Here I’ve been asked to supply background information, evidence and references.
Background information: Harry is getting married and we don’t get the day off.
Evidence: Blanket coverage on all media networks.
References: I usually make mine up.
