Just found this:

Nothing to do with the glorification of war, all to do with supporting the survivors and their families - Just like we always knew it was!!
The PPU (white poppy group) sell theirs to gather funds to support themselves. Fair enough (free speech etc) but their intervention with Red poppy's implies
and is intended to that it is an alternative method of donating your hard earned for teh same reason which it definitely IS NOT!
Dont be fooled.
