Closed petition Require all pubs and restaurants to close on Christmas Day

We think pubs and restaurant staff/hospitality workers should not be forced to work on Christmas Day.

More details

We feel hospitality staff miss out on family time enough all year round. We think it seems selfish to have a large meal at a pub on Christmas Day while hospitality staff cook and clean like any other day of the year. We think it is incredibly unfair to them and their families.
