In light of the continuing threat from coronavirus and the NHS being underfunded, it seems sensible to put money budgeted for the new years eve fireworks display towards helping the NHS. We appear to be making cuts but not necessarily in the right places.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

Fireworks displays are a matter for the local council. In the case of London fireworks, this would be a matter for the Mayor of London.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
