Rejected petition: Allow UK pubs to stay open past midnight on Monday for England versus Mexico.
Rejected on
We would like the government to Grant permission to all pubs across the country to allow them to stay open for the England Mexico round of 16. The World cup is a part of British life and British culture and it brings people to together. I know that it's on really late but it is part of our heritage
Whenever England play pubs are allowed to stay open so why is this different this tournament marks 60 years since England lifted the World cup trophy in London against West Germany. Furthermore it is a cultural relevance because it will give people the opportunity to see people from different backgrounds play for our country. The government has equality and inclusion high on the agenda I believe it is in the government's interest in stamping out racism in football to allow people to see England play.
