1)What if your employer wants to have Sundays/Bank Holidays as "normal" days, not paying extra?
I mentioned if they weren't forced to (took Sundays as read).
2)What about staff who would like that time with families but employers don't see it that way
I said I had no problem with that
3)What about people who live near the shops who would also like a quiet day with out all the traffic and noise?
Get double glazing.
4)Small shops/stalls I have no problem with. Allows folk to buy essentials and have smaller impact on staff and surroundings. I use our farmers market on Sundays as it's the only day they are in my town. I also would buy essentials but would not go shopping.
What? Small shops/stalls you have no problem with and use your farmers market but won't go shopping??! What do you use them for? Just have a look around?

My comment on Christian Heritage is more to make Sunday the special day rather than force my faith on others. Same as Muslim countries or Israel may keep a different "sabbath" even if the country is now more secular. (Jewish "counting" is more interesting as it's from sunset Friday to sunset Saturday.)

OMG! Why should Sunday be more special than any other day other than for your own religeous reasons?
Don't get me wrong I respect your belief but don't expect me to treat nor require me to treat it as a special day.
