Except that the employer cannot refuse you booking them off as holiday unlike normal holiday dates.
Why not? There's no legal right to bank holidays - lots of places work on bank holidays. You have a legal entitlement to a certain number of days off per year, depending on how many hours you work, but not to taking that time off on specific days.

I didn't know that. The only person I noticed off work today was someone who's off ill, people generally prefer to save their holidays up and take a whole week off.

I suspect it's a local convention at wherever gomezz works. It's not a legal entitlement.
Remember that more bank holidays wouldn't mean more days off work. The number of days you are entitled to is set down by law and isn't affected by the number of bank holidays.
If you work for a company that closes on bank holidays then your employer can count these days as part of your holiday entitlement, so the more bank holidays you have, the less days you have to take when you want to.
You did? I bet you cause all sorts of confusion on protest marches!
Of cause and Im so spoilt I just stamp my feet and say I want this to happen I want Arsenal to win everything -it happens
Then I wake up and everything all back to normal=

Haha, puts me in mind of Jim from the Vicar Of Dibley!
There's a bank holiday in Japan about every 2 weeks or something.
Just watch the financial news and see how many times they say "the Hang Seng is closed for a public holiday".
Somebody, somewhere, has to actually go out of their way to ensure that happens and it's a disgrace.
I always thought the Hang Seng was for Hong Kong!

Oh probably, I get my markets mixed up.
Yes, just remembered, the Japanese one is the Nikkei.
I work Bank Holidays and entertain all those that have Bank Holiday's off.
Totally agree as how many of us are able to take our full holidays?
Entertain? In what sense are you using the word entertain?
