You do realise that there's a lot of people in the private sector working still, as there's no statutory requirement to give someone a day off on a bank holiday.
Lots of businesses have too much work on, and given the short notice of it, can't afford the break in production. Unless you're suggesting it's because they're all republicans?
Given everything mentioned in this thread over the last week, there's probably more people at work than not.
