What the petition asks
Bring back Sunday closing, only having essential shops open.
This lockdown has reminded me of Sunday’s when I was younger. No shops open except for essentials, less cars on the road, families out walking together. We all survived without Sunday trading and there seemed a lot less stress and mental illness back then.
