[QUOTE=Roberto_Carlow]This year's launch of the poppy (It gets earlier every year) we were told we should wear one because of the brave work of those we don't know who protect us everyday. It's all about British nationalism now, nothing else. It's a shame what it has become really.

Had a conversation yesterday with a colleague about why I don't wear one and ended as it usually does,  why don't I go home.

You're with them now, cheerleading the aggressive militarism of the west in  Eastern Europe

I don’t think it does get earlier every year 
I didn’t see a poppy until after Halloween this year, usually see them middle of October
