đź’¨ Abstract
Londoners faced sleepless nights due to prolonged fireworks during Diwali, Halloween, and bonfire events. The London Fire Brigade received 1,341 calls, including 35 firework-related incidents, such as a house fire in Hayes. A stray firework caused a roof fire in Southall, displacing 15 people. Campaigners like Nick Hodges advocate for stricter regulations, citing late-night noise and misuse.
