Who supports the IRA? It may serve your perspective to create a strawman but be careful about what you are accusing someone of.

Are you a "reporter" for the Daily Star or Sun?

Just askin' as that reads like their shallow, inane and inaccurate drivel

What did you do with the time you saved in not typing the 'o' and 'u' in the title? Watch Palace's goal attempts from St Paddy's Day? Scratch your ear? Open a chocolate? Listen to the best bits of a Bucks Fizz album? Knock one out?

If you considered the Poppy Appeal as a political activity then you are possibly correct.

It's become that, hasn't it? Not the original intention, but Britain has changed a great deal since the inception of the poppy. We are in a state of play whereby public figures are being questioned as to why they are not wearing a poppy.

I swear, reading the OP's posts i've actually contracted some sort of terminal illness. It's that potent in its retardedness.

And for an American custom imported just like Halloween and the Coca Cola red Santa it sure upsets out "Patriots" when the British line isn't toed.

I make a more public display of the Poppy than most,my generation had Grandparent connections to WW1,parental connections to WW2 and deep respect for "Tommy Atkins" where ever her served.
I just don't feel the need to question the choice of others.
