Interesting how they lump England and Wales together - assume things are different in Scotland? They obviously have managed devolution better.

Re: St Georges Day
 

Why not?

Re: St Georges Day
 

We do need more public holidays and all the national days, the four nations of the UK, should be public holidays

:)

Re: St Georges Day
 

Because us taffies don't get St David's Day off.

:clap:

Re: St Georges Day
 

What are taffies?

In response I think we should have st days of that belong to us.

Re: St Georges Day
 

Taffies are the people who are from taffland.

And no, you don't get one country in the UK having a saint's day off without the other 3 having the same privilege.

Re: St Georges Day
 

Why? Shoudn't Saints days belong to those whom they should belong to...in other words those followers of the religion that these people are Saints of? I agree with Gogogo, any more holidays we have need to be universal. What would be really nice is if we could have a world day off :)

Re: St Georges Day
 

While we are at it how about getting the queens "official" birthday as a bank holiday? She is our queen just as much as the Aussies, Kiwis, and Kanuks who all take a day off to celebrate their monarchy. I guess as the Civil Service already get the day they can't be bothered to push legislation that will grant it to all.

Re: St Georges Day
 

Can we have more bank holidays that are not lumped in around May day and Spring bank holiday.It so messes up the school term around that point.

I reckon sometime between August and Crimbo OR sometime between spring Bank holiday and August.

What ever happens they would be tacked onto school holidays... :rolleyes:
