It has been a bone of contention for some time now. Yes, we could do with one more Bank holiday date for our calendar, let this day be Trafalgar Day on Oct 25. This date commemorates Nelson's victory over the French at Trafalgar and would be in the middle of the period between Summer Bank Holiday and Xmas, to help break up the long spell without.

YES!!!
Definitely more bank holidays
So less bank holidays here....it's awful :(
Bank holidays shows a country's culture and tradition.That is what is celebrated in bank holidays.
There must be so many reasons to have bank holidays here......unless the culture is no important therefor so less bank holidays.
Queens bday should be a bank holiday,for example. :D

Totally! We work the longest hours in Europe so I think it is only fair we have more public holidays.

Be careful with what you wish. Do you realize that a new bank holiday will most likely be a Muslim holiday?

More holidays, yes.
More time off for the banks, no.
It takes long enough to clear a cheque without goading them to have more days off.

I reckon when the Queen dies we should get another one to honour her life. Also Armistice Day should be a public holiday.
