I first marched at a rememberance parade as a cub then as a boy scout then as an army cadet and then as a serving soldier and my pride grew with my age and i find it deeply offensive that the very people our forefathers and many of my friends died to protect have the audacity to claim red poppies symbolise war and the white poppy is for everybody ... this sickening self loathing of who we are that is being taught to our kids in schools and universities needs to stop or this once proud and brave nation will be lost and we will all be wearing white Poppy’s alongside our white feathers ...... White poppies alongside 'their' white flags more like! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outofnowhere 93 Posted November 18, 2018 Report Share Posted November 18, 2018 Lost my grandad mar '17 to an artillery bombardment in France. I always wear my red poppy and tell my grandchildren of their great grandfather and his mates sacrifice for us all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
