I never wear a poppy either, I always buy one but I never wear it. I don't feel the need to show off with one, too many people I know just use them to score points and don't really respect what it stands for.

Just because someone chooses not to wear one doesn't mean they don't respect those that died, for me at least I just don't feel the need to shove it in other people's faces going 'I'M BETTER THEN YOU I'VE GOT COMPASSION LOOK AT MY POPPY' like so many people I know do. I'll respect the dead in my own way and good for Jon for making a stand, it's so plastic when you see them on TV just because the producers don't want to offend the viewers.
