What the petition asks
This national bank holiday would be to remember the people that have lost their life's during the pandemic, to thank and recognise the hard efforts of all the key workers that kept our country running and to allow family and friends to spend a day together without the fear of spreading the virus.
It would mark the end of an unprecedented event in history and celebrate the unity of our country.
