Make June 24th a national bank holiday for Independence Day

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

On June 24th 2016, Britain had spoken to leave the European Union. History has been made from this day on.

This day was the start of gaining back our country and having the country in our own hands rather than being told what we can and cannot do giving us the freedom and independence.
