High street retailer Marks & Spencer (M&S) has announced a store-wide ban that will affect all of its shops in the UK. The retailer announced the news on Twitter, and it has already been praised.
M&S tweeted: "We'd already stopped selling disposable barbecues near national parks and in London but given the unusually hot and dry conditions, we've taken the precautionary step of removing them from sale across the UK."
London Fire Brigade has since praised the decision to ban disposable BBQs from M&S stores. On Twitter, LFB said: "We want to work with retailers to stop the sale of disposable barbecues and reduce the risk of dangerous grass fires."
