Closed Prohibit private fireworks

Closed on

Private fireworks can occur on any day, it is a barbaric custom that do not make sense.
It is costly, every year people get hurt.
It scares animals and the UK is supposedly animals friendly!
Authorities refuse to police extreme private fireworks.
We are told fireworks make profit, reason why they are still allowed. Do you really think there are profit to be made?
Keep them official to protect children, adults and animals instead of allowing anybody/everybody to terrorise their neighbours and pets.
