| Message | I'd rather have this policy than having the chance of a local government deciding that kids could buy fireworks. There is no gurantee they would not let them And no fireworks shouldn't be banned. Only adults should be able to buy them. Next you will let local governments decied about the sale of achol |

| Message | i like your consistency NIP with making government less bogged down with less crucial matters, however certain things need to be set at a national standard, thus why i am disagreeing on some of your party's devolution policies |
