Every weekend since the summer has been marked by increasingly noisy fireworks.
Their use escalated to almost daily during the Christmas holidays. When they were limited to the period around November 5, animals could be kept inside in anticipation. Now they are subject to a daily terror.
The time has surely come for Brighton and Hove City Council to seek powers to restrict the sale and use of fireworks to a reasonable period of a couple of weeks a year.
