A quarter of British workers booked a Monday vacation

Fan fever has caused about a quarter of the country’s 32 million workers to schedule their annual leave on Monday—twice the normal Monday in July.

He said: “I think this will be a tempting fate-let us see.”

“A historic victory should be celebrated”

Lee Jones continued to elaborate on the reasons for his petition. He said: “In addition, a historic victory should be celebrated.

“It is expected that the winning team will parade the trophy, and the bank holiday will be the best time to do so.

“In addition, the British naturally want to continue to enjoy victory, which provides a much-needed opportunity for the retail and leisure industries to make up for lost revenue.”
