Restrict sale, possession, and distribution of corrosive substances to public

Petition Details

Increase restrictions on the sale, possession, and distribution of corrosive substances that are currently accessible to the general public. This should include; bleach sodium hydroxide, ammonia, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, or any substance with a concentration great enough to cause injury.

Additional Information

Such substances have been used in the UK as a weapon in several attacks. We believe the general public do not require the access to any substance that can be used as a chemical weapon. Many cleaning products are corrosive enough to be used as a weapon and are sold widely in supermarkets. We believe no household requires such strong cleaning agents. These substances can cause injury and death.
