Councils are being given the option to relax laws on Sunday trading hours, meaning, if they do so, retail stores could be adding more hours onto the working day.
For all people who already work in retail, we know the work/life balance is hard. Shops so not need to be open longer on a Sunday.
I believe people will still spend the same amount, just spread over a longer time period. Shops are open 7 days a week and many supermarkets 24 during week days. If that isn't enough 'shopping time' then I don't know what to say. Instead of looking at extending shopping times and opening stores for longer, they should be looking at other more important factors affecting people in retail- wages, shift patterns, lifestyle and balance with home life.
SAY NO TO LONGER SUNDAY OPENING HOURS!!

It's bad enough shops are open bank holidays. People that work in retail have the right to have a life too. Extending Sundays hours is driven by greed. Nothing else.
Please leave alone. Hours are long enough as they are.
We don't need no Sunday extension!
where is the life work balance....I thought families mattered.....or was that just another conservative spin....
Give retail workers a break! We have a life too!
Working in retail is a hard job. I refuse to work full hours on a Sunday. Where's our day of rest!?

Considering companies rarely still pay extra for staff working on a Sunday or Bank Holiday, just harsh to extend their hours too! It's not needed either.
