A Tory Cabinet minister pushed for making King Charles’ coronation day a bank holiday, which is how we found out about the Christmas Bank Holiday.
No one knows for sure when Charles will be crowned at Westminster Abbey, but most people think it will happen at the beginning of June next year.
this could happen on June 2, which is exactly 70 years after his mother was crowned.
Charles took over as king as soon as the Queen died on September 8, but the official coronation won’t happen for months.
People are likely to have a lot of fun at this event. Now, Mr. Rees-Mogg has said that it could be a bank holiday, like when the Queen was crowned.
The Business Secretary, who is in charge of bank holidays, told the Daily Telegraph, “The coronation is an important symbolic act with constitutional resonance about the stability of our system.
“It makes sense to take a day off for that, and it won’t have a huge effect on growth.”
Ministers haven’t started official talks about whether or not to make the day a bank holiday yet. “Whenever there’s a decision about a special bank holiday, there’s always a debate about the pros and cons,” said a government source.
