Lest we really forget............... 10 Downing Street has approved a petition requesting a new public holiday falling on the Monday after Remembrance Sunday each Year. To be known as The National Remembrance Holiday. It has 3 aims:
1. To emphasise the remembrance of those servicemen and women who have given, and continue to give, their lives for Britain. 2. To remind people of the importance of protecting our Nation and what it stands for. 3. To break the 3 month period between August Bank Holiday and Christmas. Especially as the UK has fewer Public Holidays than most European Countries. If you agree to the idea, please sign up to the petition, it does not take long. It would also be great if you could forward this to all the names in your address book. The main idea is to have a designated remembrance bank holiday. THIS IS A NOTABLE PETITION THAT THE GOVERNMENT HAVE ASKED FOR SO PLEASE SIGN IF YOU WANT AN EXTRA BANK HOLIDAY. http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/remembermonday/ <http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/remembermonday/> _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
