It's good that the fireworks were stored upright.

In the report there why did they need to have a witness describe what she saw when the actual video of it did a perfect job?

More impressive than some intentional displays I've seen!

Happy and sad all at the same time.

Clearly in the video you can see and hear fireworks exploding, they don't need to tell us that they heard from witnesses they they could see and hear fireworks exploding

That's a lot of money

Was it deliberate?

If so I hope the arsonist doesn't get let off.

Bricks and mortars.

Someone will get a rocket for this one. Possibly even fire the guy.

I live a couple of minutes away from where it happened. It sounded like a bomb going off! I thought someone was having a crazy firework display at first.

Did you hear about the fireworks factory?

It got burnt down when the workers went on strike.

It is not clear how the fire at SP Fireworks factory unit on Baswich Industrial Estate started but police said the building had sustained "significant" damage.

All eyes on employee Catherine Wheel.

They were local neds were denied fireworks so then burned the place down.

where's the huge NI crate bonfire which is usually erected this time of year only to be destroyed by the council on nov 4th citing safety?

Edit sorry it was normally for the 12th then do it...

Expect the EU to put a ban or at least some kind of limit on fireworks in the near future.
