Mister M Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Perhaps motivated by envy of the fact that the early May bank holidays are traditionally associated with workers' day across many countries, the Conservative MP Peter Bone and about 40 other backbench Tories want the bank holiday in late August to be re-named 'Margaret Thatcher Day'. How should it be celebrated I wonder? Amongst Bone's other policies that would make up his alternative Queen's Speech (banning the burqa in public, privatising the BBC, and reintroducing the death penalty) Swivel eyed loon nuttery, or sensible suggestions that meet the needs of the country?

Pie n ear Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I assume all those that created over the funeral will continue to work that day then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppet2 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I assume all those that created over the funeral will continue to work that day then. Why so? It is not Another bank holiday which is being proposed, just the re-naming of the original bank holiday in late August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
