Introduce a one off public holiday from Fri 2nd July to Mon 5th July 2021 (inclusive) to allow those people unable to meet for Christmas 2020 with friends and family to get together and celebrate. Could also celebrate the successful roll out of the COVID 19 vaccine.

The public some good news and something to look forward to following an awful year however to introduce such a holiday would require Government approval (and law).
