Fireworks Legislation Reform Petition: Signature List Feed http://gopetition.com/signatures/fireworks-legislation-reform.html Online petition signatures en-us Thu, 9 Apr 2026 11:06 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition mr george bentley [Signature #83] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6421233?utm_medium=rss Wed, 4 Nov 2009 04:24:01 UTC 6421233 Mr David Paterson [Signature #82] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/6017882?utm_medium=rss I think the law does indeed need to be changed. I think fireworks need only be sold for up to 2 days before the event. I think the age limit should indeed be raised to 21 and I think anyone found lighting them in the street should be arrested for carrying a weapon.

]]> Sat, 8 Aug 2009 07:35:27 UTC 6017882 Mrs Elaine McFall [Signature #81] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/2592770?utm_medium=rss Make it illegal to let fireworks off on any day other than 5th November. One night people can handle but when animals are scared witless it is not fun. There are enough human "junkies" we cant "dope" our pets up for weeks on end to ease the effect of fireworks going off day and night for months - yes months - here they start in September!! Enough is enough!!

Hefty fines should be imposed on those who breach these rules. Also, local authorities should be held accountable for allowing traders short leases on business properties to sell fireworks.

Whoever is organising fireworks events should have some form of ID so that nobody should be getting fireworks that shouldnt have them! We read stories every year of tragedies on Fireworks night some involving animals! havent we had enough warnings that fireworks shouldnt be allowed! they are a waste of time.

I would even like them to be banned from the public. i witnessed teenagers lighting rockets and firing them across a road at each other on th 5th.

I don't mind 1 night of celebrations but for weeks on end its very annoying. Think of the resources that would be saved if it was limited to 1 night - police, ambulance, fire brigade etc. Personally I don't think in this day and age of terrorism they should be on sale to the public at all and should be limited to public dispays only - I think this will come eventully

As soon as one person dumps a sofa, everyone starts I have to cope with the noise , smoke and mess from September on,then the fireworks start every night sometimes up untill 3am. Having a rescue dog who was tortured with fireworks I would like to see them banned from sale to Joe Public and only available to a licensed display presenter.

Legislating them can only be a GOOD idea. It works in other countries where they are only available for organized displays.

A group of about 6 teenagers who could not have been older than 14 were lighting fireworks on the main road.

I can only do this if its only for a few nights but they go off with no warning for weeks. The curfew doesn't work either - its too late when you've already been woken at 01:15 am! Fireworks shouldn't be sold to the public at all.

Penalties should be levied for people who use them recklessly.

Was it not illegal to discharge fireworks on any other day than 5th Nov? If ther was such a law and that law still stands why can't it be acted upon?

To be honest, I think fireworks (except simple sparklers or silent rockets) should be banned entirely from public sale and people can see the proper displays in a safe & professional environment instead of young kids running around getting on everyone's nerves by making a huge amount of noise playing with toys that might explode in their faces!! Seems like total madness to me....

]]> Mon, 6 Nov 2006 04:30:38 UTC 1144271 Mrs Donna Finlay [Signature #6] https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/1144164?utm_medium=rss Fireworks are too dangerous and cause so much trauma to pets and wildlfe, I think they should be banned for good. As for Unspeakable teenagers having access to them, laws need to be revised that only Organised displays have any right to buy them on a Yearly license, which would need to be renewed 2 weeks prior to 5th November.
