Closed petition Close all businesses on boxing day to allow people to enjoy family time in 2020

I would like the government to shut businesses for boxing day 2020 to enable people to spend time with family members they may not have seen at all this year due to covid and now that the regulations have been relaxed for the 4 days over christmas people still have to suffer by working boxing day.

More details

I want the government to do it because they have been able to stop the economy for the majority of this year so what difference does 1 day make to give people a great end to a dreadful year as it may be the last christmas some people get to see certain family members due to covid.
