Rejected petition Ban the public sale of fireworks. Have organised official firework displays.

Please ban the public sale of fireworks and like most countries have official organised ones for everyone to enjoy in a safe manner.

More details

For the past 3 weeks London sounds like a war zone every night we get woken up by fireworks at random times up to 2 am last night. The fireworks are set in middle of streets, in middle of buildings and are extremely dangerous. Generally at least 3 months a year we have this as random fireworks explode around us at different times.

Please can you ban the public sale and allow for safe organised displays for everyone to enjoy.
