Should shops close on Boxing Day as thousands back petition?

 

Should shops close on Boxing Day as thousands back petition?


On December 26th scores of shoppers hunt for post-Christmas Day bargains.

But a petition on Change.org has called for shops to close on Boxing Day. It says that staff should not be forced to spend Boxing Day away from loved ones. Just so shoppers can get a new pair of half-price trainers that they will not even wear before they start their New Years resolutions at the gym (far into January)

Home Bargains has told staff it will be closing all their stores on Boxing Day this year to give all their hardworking staff some extra time off over Christmas. And told them to spend time with their families.

54,295 people have signed the petition the aim is to get 75,000 to sign.

Do you think shops should close on Boxing Day?
