At one such event in east London it will be a Bengal Tiger, not Guy Fawkes, that will be surrounded by flames.
Just a cotton pickin' minute! Why is it 'polluting the atmosphere', when we celebrate Guy Fawkes night with a bonfire, but having a tiger surrounded by flames is o.k.

By the way whatever will we do with the pallet mountain and old suites if we don't have bonfires every year to reduce them to ashes? Are we going to open up fresh Guy Fawkes celebratory land-fill sites to cope with it all?
