Ban on sale of fireworks to the public.

Currently has the greatest number of signatures of petitions submitted during this parliament.

Though I expect that they will still come back with the usual platitudes of the current laws are working, not enough people die or are injured each year to matter, yada, yada, yada.

I have been in Hong Kong and also Taipei during Chinese New Years when what we call crack-a-jacks get thrown about, to scare away demons to ensure a prosperous year of course.
It is kind of safer when it is not parents trying to impress children, but still far too many people who have no idea of the dangers of explosives in confined spaces.

That's probably another reason that they will not ban them; we can't upset our Chinese and Indian residents who like their fireworks.

BTW... Which parts of you are retired?
