I will never wear a Poppy now, sadly it has become a commercial icon and a way of as this thread started out to show disgust at those in power or the media that do not wear one, without knowing whether they have donated or not or even care and support our troops, both past and present...........

It has gone from the real reason it should be worn to an emblem to be used to ostracize others in public and on the media who fail to wear one, and sadly for that reason I still chip in but decline the poppy.
