Re: Do you wear one and if so why?
Once upon a day no one would dream of asking the question, and people wore the poppy.....then some belligerent PC oiiks started imbuing the poppy with politicised nonsense and folk who really could not put two thoughts together jumped on the band wagon......thinking they were making some kind of radical statement.
We owe the men(and women) who gave their lives, a debt of gratitude.
If you do not wish to wear a poppy, then don't,but for goodness sake save us from all the justificating claptrap.
