Children not allowed to have balloons

How crazy, at least it was proven that there was no substance!!

Issue

Enquirer was told that they could not give out air-filled balloons to children after a library book event due to unspecified health and safety reasons. Instead they had to burst them and throw them away.

Panel opinion

What a lot of hot air! There are no health and safety regulations which stand in the way of children having fun with balloons.
