Live on LBC
Matt Wright says no need for it...............


I do not like Politics like that

Mystic Mock 26-10-2024 08:41 AM

I don't really see the issue with it tbh.

Was it necessary? No.

Am I going to lose sleep over it? Also no.

arista 26-10-2024 08:46 AM

get off your fence
Will You

Vicky. 26-10-2024 08:47 AM

...why? Seems random

Kate! 26-10-2024 08:53 AM

It's beautiful. If people would like to wear it that's up to them. Quite nice to have the option really.

That’s the the question's
Does it go to the same people that people buy red poppies to support

Does that community buy red poppies

Beso 26-10-2024 09:02 AM

I would rather they didnt wear it. The red poppy remembers ALL fallen, not just the straight ones.

Oliver_W 26-10-2024 09:04 AM

Great idea. LGBT and other minorities should also be given our own drinking foundations, and allocated areas on public transport.

Ammi 26-10-2024 09:31 AM

…I’m reading that the rainbow poppy cost is £8 and as with a red one, the funds go to support the Royal British Legion…so does it matter, really…it’s all funding the same thing and representing a support of …so it’s personal choice, surely…as to which poppy colour someone wears…

it dilutes the significance
