Rejected petition License to Firework

More details

People are not educated enough about fireworks, in the UK there are so many casualties due to the incorrect use of fireworks. In order to be able to provide safety for people there should be a law stating that anyone who wishes to purchase fireworks should hold some sort of licence to do so, as well as undergoing a training course ensuring they are aware of the dangers and correct uses, with fireworks being so common and extremely accesable to the public, there needs to be more safety precautions taken, people need to be educated.
