Rejected

What the petition asks
I want the Government to mark the end of the pandemic with a bank holiday and pre-authorisation for a nationwide street party.
At the time of me writing this around one in five people around the globe are under lockdown.
This has been a very isolating time for some and a worrying time for all.
It is my belief that giving the communites preauthorisation for a street party when it is medically safe to do so will give people HOPE, something to plan for & bring people together.
