All the cool smaller stuff was banned long ago in the UK. 'Items of Erratic Flight' including all the ground spinners, helicopters, bottle rockets etc. The consumer stuff these days is so boring. What would've made so much more sense is to keep the smaller 'novely' type fireworks that are typically relatively low-noise, and much better suited to the relatively small gardens here.

Instead we have these relatively powerful cakes that should have a 25m safety radius that almost nobody actually has in their garden.

Many countries have a unique style of firework making that is part of their cultural heritage, ours is almost completely lost as everything is imported from China now, we outsource the danger of production to child labour in Luiyang. Its a sad state of affairs.
