WHAT DO YOU think?
4-DAY BANK HOLS FOR THE QUEEN’S 70 YEARS
YOU know what I’ll be doing with a new Bank Holiday?
Demanding to go to work for no pay, that’s what. Because I’m a republican to my core.
I don’t need some crusty, outdated old bag’s say- so to either go into work or not.
I’d also turn all the royal palaces into McDonald’s drive- thrus. Or maybe public toilets.
WHAT a magnificent gesture by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth to bestow the gift of two less working days of toil upon her grateful subjects.
This is sort of munificence Britain has exported around the world for centuries.
There are some who reject the idea of a monarchy, but to them I say: Shoo! Lest you embarrass your foul and soulless selves further!
Harry Toyne, Tunbridge Wells
ALL I do on Bank Holidays is go to the pub and get eye- wateringly arseholed.
That’s also what I do at weekends already, so Bank Holidays are just more time to give my drinking trousers an extra treat.
On the other hand, after lockdown my doctor says my kidneys and liver resemble sweet potato mash, so making it to next year is a moot point anyway.
Terry Oldfield, Coventry I HAPPEN to know that most people in the world discussing this news about a new holiday have one thing first and foremost in their minds – our beloved Commonwealth.
Now, it’s true that most people under the age of 40 have absolutely no idea what that means and neither do I.
But if it has “common” in it, which will attract peasants, and “wealth”, to attract the filthy rich, then what, really, is there not to like?

BANK Holiday! PAH! Is there anything, ANYTHING more hateful on God’s lovely earth than a Bank Holiday?
Anywhere nice is crammed with mouth- breathing vermin and their wretched, screaming c** t- turds.
You’ve just had a year being paid for doing nothing! Get back to bastard work!
I hope it rains. Solidly. And snows.
