i could see thousands of protestants and catholics leaving for the new world.
also it would affect western society to its core if this ban gets a foothold in mainland europe. the world would very different and i can see less people convert in territories in the british empire.

I guess that the majority would continue to celebrate it in secret. Furthermore to really wipe out Christmas they would have to challenge the rest of the Christian world....
 
Eh, I'm not sure the effects would really be so big. People of English heritage just wouldn't celebrate the holiday, or if they did it would be more like Good Friday or some other obscure religious holiday.

Edit: I'm not sure they really wanted to abolish the holiday, just some traditional types of celebration.
