Closed petition Make it legal requirement to close shops on bank holidays INCLUDING BOXING DAY

We have survived weeks without most shops trading full stop, so surely we can survive a few bank holidays throughout the year.

Let’s make these special days “family” days like they used to be

More details

Around 10 years ago, nothing was open on a bank holiday - especially BOXING DAY
this used to be a special family day, now the shops are all open, people have to work which ruins the traditional family days
