Yeah.
Hypocrisy is nearly as bad as the decision to ban poppies in the first place.
Sad, when it's only falling profits that can prick consciences.
Where are all the human rights lawyers?
There's usually loads come a running, willing to fight for an individual's right to wear a veil, or some other worn item, that signifies a particular message.

Re: Who owns Bodycare and Poundworld?
each year we hear of these companies banning teh wearing of the poppy its as though they never learn or do it deliberatly because they actually believe theres no such thing as bad publicity.
all thats missing this year so far is the mob of asians burning poppies but theres time yet

Re: Who owns Bodycare and Poundworld?
I'm off into town later I shall make a point of visiting said shops to see if its true, and report back. Wouldn't it be awful if someone drew giant poppies on said shops windows.

Re: Who owns Bodycare and Poundworld?
Staff in both poundland & poundworld are wearing poppies, staff in bodycare are not, when I asked if they have been banned from wearing them lady said no, they just haven't got one, told them off & to go & buy one!
