There'd be a furore from all small shopkeepers regardless of their religion, as they regard Christmas and Easter Days as vital trading days that give a welcome boost to their takings over the year. Incidentally, there are plenty of Muslim-owned larger independent stores that have to close down for these Christian religious days.
