Nationalfeiertag (Vereinigtes Königreich) Das Vereinigte Königreich Großbritannien und Nordirland hat gegenwärtig keinen offiziellen Nationalfeiertag. Als teilweiser Ersatz wird der Geburtstag des Monarchen als zentraler nationaler Feiertag begangen – unter Königin Elisabeth II. wird dieser Tag als Queen’s Official Birthday (unabhängig von ihrem tatsächlichen Geburtstag am 21. April) an einem jährlich neu festgelegten Datum meist Ende Mai oder Anfang Juni gefeiert. Dieser Tag wird jedoch auch in den anderen Commonwealth Realms, deren Staatsoberhaupt Elisabeth II. ist, gefeiert (teilweise mit abweichendem Datum), und ist deswegen nicht exklusiv britisch sowie durch sein jährlich wechselndes Datum kein echter nationaler Fixtag. Besonders in den letzten Jahren gab es deswegen immer wieder Bestrebungen, als Britain Day oder UK Day ein festes Datum zum Nationalfeiertag zu machen.

Public holidays in the United Kingdom. Public holidays in the United Kingdom are the public holidays observed in some or all of the countries of the United Kingdom. Most businesses and non-essential services are closed on public holidays, although an increasing number of retail businesses (especially the larger ones) do open on some of the public holidays. Like Denmark, the United Kingdom has no national day holiday marked and/or celebrated. The lack of a formal founding date and no constitution may be the reason for the lack of a national day. Although there is no statutory right for workers to take paid leave on public holidays, where paid leave is given (either because the business is closed or for other reasons), the public holiday can count towards the minimum statutory holiday entitlement.
Likewise, if you are required to work on a public holiday, there is no statutory right to an enhanced pay rate nor to a day off in lieu (alternative day off), although many employers do give either or both.

English wine: Is sparkling wine better in England than France? 11 July 2013Last updated at 06:22 ET By Tom de Castella BBC News Magazine A vineyard in Hampshire The Duchess of Cornwall has called for a new name for English sparkling wine to match the grandeur of champagne. And for the first time, domestic wine is the most popular in the government's cellar. Have Britons developed a taste for a home-grown tipple? Someone arrives with a bottle of English wine. Cue excitable voices saying, "Gosh, English wine is really quite good, you know - it gives champagne a run for its money. " The surprise used to be palpable. But English wine has grown up.
