What the petition asks
24th March 2020 the UK went into lockdown due to Covid-19. I think this day should be remembered with a bank holiday.
We have all had to change our lives that day marks when everything changed for everyone across the country. How we all united to achieve one goal and in the future this day can be celebrated on how we go through this terrible period.
