Sorry Judd, but I don't really agree with that.
I understand what you say about those who may not wish to celebrate our festive season, but this is our country - and we do. Same as I would expect to honour another country's customs.
And what about the staff being made to work? What if they wanted to be with their families and enjoy their christmas dinner and a day's rest?
I don't see why anybody can't prepare for one day without a shop opening.
