Stop fireworks from being sold to the general public.

The Issue

Every year members of the public are letting off fireworks every night from October all the way through to New Years Eve. Some of these fireworks are extremely loud and let off late in the evening. This causes a lot of distress to animals that are afraid of loud noises and also children who may be asleep in bed. For example my 1 year daughter is always being woken up by these loud fireworks, she wakes up screaming and crying which causes her distress. It affects the older generations who may get scared by loud noises too. I strongly believe that all fireworks should stop being sold to the general public. Fireworks should only be sold and let off at large annual events.
