Stop the sale of fireworks to the general public.

What the petition asks
Stop the sale of fireworks to the general public. Only council organised displays on the 5th November & 31st December.
Fireworks are the cause of misery to millions of animals and humans. Wildlife, live stock and mostly pets. Causing illness and death. Also humans with ptsd soldiers, people suffering with mental health and even those who suffer from fits. Use drone displays like a lot of forward thinking countries. Fireworks are used as weapons and basically you allow anyone to buy and use them. Dogs die from the fear of the noise. Humans would if they weren’t sedated. Puts chemicals in to our environment
