Pride in Britain Day

Is there a general election looming or something? Gordon Brown has promised a new national holiday called "Pride in Britain Day":
Brown’s latest idea is inspired by the Pride of Britain awards, created by Piers Morgan, the former Daily Mirror editor and friend of the prime minister. This annual ceremony, broadcast on ITV1, honours ordinary people who have shown extraordinary bravery, dedication or kindness.
May I remind the Rt Hon. Twat from Kirkcaldy and Cowdenbeath of his words on St George's Day 2008:
As far as St. George's day is concerned, it is a matter for public debate on whether this is going to be a holiday.
Has that public debate happened? I must have missed it.
