Same reason they celebrate a day of High Treason.

It's "Bonfire day" or "Gunpowder Treason day" or...the probablly more familiar to those on this side of the pond 'Guy Fawkes Day".


Remembering the day Fawkes and his merry band of "Catolicks" tried to @ssplode Parliment with the King and his followers inside.

He got caught trying to light the fuse.

Guy Fawkes (13 April 1570 – 31 January 1606) was a member of a group of English Roman Catholics which planned to carry out the Gunpowder Plot, an attempt to blow up the Houses of Parliament and kill King James I of England, to destroy Protestant rule by killing the Protestant aristocracy, on 5 November 1605.
