§ Mr. Nigel Griffiths (Edinburgh, South)I humbly beg to present this petition to the House. It was collected from the shopworkers of the United Kingdom demanding that more than 2 million of them have the right to enjoy Christmas day as a family day, and signed by 20,000 members of the shopworkers union the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers, requesting that the House agree to legislation to protect such workers from having to work on Christmas day.
To lie upon the Table.
