Make St. George’s Day a public holiday in England
Rejected

What the petition asks
I strongly believe it should be a public holiday in the England because it seems unfair that we don’t. For example, Ireland have St. Patrick’s off, same as Scotland have St. Andrew’s Day off, etc. So why shouldn’t we?
