Sorry if this is in the wrong place, it`s a petition not a poll, but it`s one that could benefit most of us. Please take the time to read it and if you dont agree, just hit the delete button.

Dear All

Please read this as it is important

Number 10 Downing Street has approved a petition that was launched
requesting a new public holiday falling on the Monday after Remembrance
Sunday in November each year. To be known as the National Remembrance
Holiday, it's got three 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 that 3 month period between the August Public Holiday and
Christmas when there are currently no long weekends, 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 doesn't
take long - and it would be great if you were to forward the link to
other people as well. If you are not interested, just hit the delete
key. This is not just about another bank holiday, but more importantly
about having a designated day to remember all those people that
sacrificed their lives for our freedom.

THIS IS A NOTEABLE PETITION THAT THE GOVERNMENT HAVE ASKED FOR PLEASE SIGN IF YOU WANT AN EXTRA BANK HOLIDAY.

Petition to: create a new public holiday, the National Remembrance Holiday to commemorate The Fallen and our Nation, with the holiday falling on the second Monday in November each year, the day after Remembrance Sunday.
