Ban the sale of fireworks by retailers in the UK, protect our Pets & Veterans.

What the petition asks
Ban their sales and restrict their use to licensed firework displays only.
The uk’s pets, specifically dogs and our veteran service men and women are made to suffer extreme stress and anxiety every year due to the indiscriminate setting off of Rockets and flashbangs around their homes, places where they should feel safe. This has to end, end their suffering and do the right thing, stop their sales now.
