Take the day off work
on Friday 23 April 2010!

Celebrate St. George's Day!

England lags far behind the rest of Europe in the number of bank holidays we get. A bank holiday on Saint Georges Day would be a great opportunity for all the English (regardless of colour or religion) to recognise what binds us together - instead of concentrating on our differences.

Everything from football to fish & chips, and cricket to curry could be celebrated on our national day.

Northern Ireland already has a bank holiday on St. Patrick's Day, the Scottish Parliament has introduced a voluntary Bank Holiday on St. Andrew's Day and the Welsh Assembly agree that St. David's Day should be a holiday.

Help us persuade the government to give England a bank holiday on St Georges Day. Take the day off work on Friday 23 April, 2010. If we all take a holiday on the same day it will send a powerful message to those in charge.

Celebrate St. Georges Day with friends and family.
