A quick search : The UK is benefitting on holidays 27th & 28th. 27th is Bank Holiday and 28th is Boxing day ( but is 26th Boxing day? ). Corrections welcome.

Some article : Rail workers to strike on Bank Holidays

.......................................RMT general secretary Bob Crow said: "The spirit of old Scrooge is alive and well on Northern Rail and our conductor members have shown in this ballot that they will not be treated as second-class citizens this Christmas.

"There is no agreement in place on Northern Rail for the additional public holidays on December 27 and 28 that everyone else will be benefiting from this year. You only have to look at the sporting calendar to see that these days are full-on public holidays everywhere other than in the minds of the senior management at Northern Rail.

"No matter how many phoney arguments Northern Rail throw up, they cannot escape the fact that this is a company that has made over £85 million in profits off the backs of their workforce in the past four years. The boardroom is awash with cash and it is outrageous that staff are being told to work these additional Christmas public holidays at flat rate while the Northern Rail shareholders are relaxing in front of the telly with the warm feeling that £80 million in dividend payments brings."
