I've signed it Willow.

I've had endless problems with fireworks in the run up to 5th Nov. I've phoned the police before now when fireworks have been going off at about 11 o'clock in the evening on an ordinary Friday night simply because some blokes have come home from the pub and decided to set the kids fireworks off a few weeks early. The police response, 'there's nothing we can do'. If they can fine people for pipping their car horn after that time then surely they can do something about nuisance fireworks at that time too.

I've written to Greg Pope about it and he has been quite active in the commons about changing regulations on the sale of fireworks.
