I'm gay, I wear a rainbow bracelet, I'm all for expression of LGBT pride, I just don't think this was needed. But as has been said, the proceeds are all going to the same place so there's that.

Great post...
Like you say, I'm all for being proud of who you are. But Remembrance is a bigger picture.
I didn't realise the proceeds were going to the British Legion, but it doesn't surprise me. In the last couple of years they've spent around £70k pa of money they raised by donation on recruiting a diversity officer.
