England particularly has a fairly low number of them.
So I'd be in favour of one or two more.

St George's Day would be a good candidate :)

rest days are good for productivity so i'm all for it

This is the last thing we need after all the lockdowns

Yes Great Point.

If they are not going to give any more at least rejig when they happen...there are too many crammed into April/May....give us one in Oct to break the run to Christmas

England has 8 compared to 11 in Scotland and 17 in Japan..:fist:

Its exactly whats needed for entertainment/hospitality which have been hit hardest

I don't work school holidays so I'm not personally desperate for more bank hols ... But isn't today the last one until Christmas?!

If they're gonna be re-jigged, maybe it could be so every school hol has a bank holiday? Then working families who'd be working when their kids were off could have a long weekend...

I also think retail staff should get bank hols tbh. They were the least-recognised key workers during the pandemic, not to mention the way they're treated for such crap pay.

Yes the next one is 25th/26th of Dec.

Thats enough, for England.
