Rejected petition Ban the sale of fireworks for public use. Limit to displays and organisers only!
Rejected on
Ban the use of fireworks to the general public. A license should be required to purchase fireworks. This is well overdue!
I’m surprised that this hasn’t been done already. I’ve always believed that sale of fireworks should only be allowed with a license to prevent serious injuries and the discomfort of pets and animals in general.
