Rejected petition Ban the use of fireworks in radio & tv advertisements.

Please ban the use of the noise of fireworks in tv & radio adverts

More details

I request this as the owner of a dog & cats, terrified of the noise of fireworks. It is not fair for animals to be terrorised in their own homes by adverts screeching and banging. Animals left with radio's for company whilst owners are out are traumatised when nobody is there to reassure them of their safety. They can cause serious harm to themselves & each other.
