Make all fireworks Silent Or just stop them being sold to the general public.
Ban the sale of fireworks that bang to the general public.
It doesn't make then anymore enjoyable and for people with certain disabilities, it makes them jump.
Also for people with pets, it's unfair.
We are supposed to be a nation of dog lovers, yet we put them through the turma of fireworks.
Between October and January, people let fireworks off. Even during daylight hours. Bangs and pops go off at all hours.
The fire service and hospitals are always over run with burns.
And the meaning behind them is long forgotten.
But I guess the government just see the £'s from VAT.
It's time to do the right thing for people who care about animals and not out for themselves.
