I can’t agree with these sentiments… can’t we just do them properly? This would be the few ruining it for the many.

It looks like the fireworks have been cancelled… am I the last to know this? Any link to this?
You’re right.
It was an angry knee-jerk reaction.
It guess this could have been a one-off steaming incident which would be pretty impossible to police.
The brazen lawlessness of some youngsters today is a real worry for me though.
Oh yeh, and how much of a rip-off are these Fun Fairs now!
(But I’m still a cross between Victor Meldrew and Rupert Rigsby)

I don’t think it’s that tricky, the laws on sale and use of fireworks are quite clear:
And specifically:
The law says you must not set off or throw fireworks (including sparklers) in the street or other public places.
Venue security as well as members of the public should have been able to call on the police to check on the troublemakers.
Sadly you are probably right. I think it’s only when calling on the emergency services that people will suddenly realise how bad things have got.

Sometimes I appreciate some countries that set rules in place and make sure it is actioned. At least you can still enjoy without such negative issues occurring like that!!
