Rejected petition Ban private fireworks

More details

No need to list the number of accidents that happen each year, because we do know that.
Fireworks are explosive and as such dangerous, they should not be kept in home nor transported from a to b in a car! They terrorise the most vulnerable beings such as babies, elderly people and animals. They are used in riots and to attack home owners. The rest of Europe has a ban on them why not the Uk?
