St David’s Day: Welsh Secretary backs bank holiday calls


St Andrew’s Day is an annual bank holiday in Scotland, as is St. Patrick’s Day in Northern Ireland.

Sir Robert told Y Byd yn ei Le on S4C: “My personal view would be to get rid of Labor Day, St David’s Day would be a bank holiday, and he would be a great supporter.”

The conservative MP, who is originally from Yannelli, said it was up to others to decide whether such a change to the calendar should go ahead.
