Rejected petition Ban the sale of disposable BBQs

To make it illegal for the sale of disposable BBQs to the general public.

More details

Despite being in the midst of a pandemic, the hot weather has brought people out to beaches & beauty spots. Many have brought disposable BBQs with them which have led to fires & valuable resources being diverted to tackle the aftermath.
These are often left to smoulder unwatched meaning children stand on them causing burns & wildlife can get trapped in the mesh.
They are another source of unwanted litter picked up by volunteers, please ban them completely from sale in shops and elsewhere.
