Petition

make the sale of fireworks to the general public illegal

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

i believe sale of fireworks to the general public should be illegal and the noise to be reduced from 120cba to 90cba as there is too much distress caused to animals and people with anxiety.
Fireworks should only be allowed in professionally controlled, council approved public firework shows.

Animals are loosing their lifes to them, it was their world first we have just invaded it and now this is how we treat them, it is unfair.

The environment is also suffering abuse whilst the use of fireworks are still in use the way they are. It’s not necessary harm. We don’t need fireworks to live, we need the world to live
