Poll: Time to ban Guy Fawkes?

Reporter The Hutt News

The Petone wharf was set alight twice over the weekend during Guy Fawkes celebrations. Do you think it's time we seriously considered banning fireworks to avoid these sorts of incidents?

The PM is concerned at the number of pop-up fireworks sellers on the streets, but is not considering banning sales.
