I'm not impressed with Sadiq Khan myself however he's made a wise decision on this.

NYE should be cancelled nationwide really, I can guarantee there will be a spike in cases in the new year if other cities and places don't cancel.

'Looking forward to Arista lighting a couple of sparklers over zoom, for the TIBB masses.

Should give the firework budget to help the homeless

[Jigs]

Won't stop the house parties

[caprimint]

Disappointing :(

Hopefully there's still something good for watching on tv though (which is apparently being worked on)

I’ve never really cared for NYE celebrations for a long time now so it doesn’t bother me too much that it’s been cancelled.

[The display, which was watched by more than
11 million people across the UK on television in 2018,
had a total budget of £2.3million that year.]

[Mayor of London confirmed no fireworks display
to take place in central London
Instead, television event will take place for people
to enjoy from safety of home
He added 'we can't afford' for large numbers
of people to congregate in capital]
