When it comes to bank holidays, not all things are equal in the United Kingdom.
This year, thanks to the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, those living in England and Wales have nine public holidays to look forward to - one extra than usual following the extra day’s celebration in June to mark the 70th anniversary of the monarch’s reign.
But those residing in Scotland have 10 in total and those in Northern Ireland get the longest bank holiday break with 11 in 2022.
