I saw Caroline Lucas wearing both on question time, it is a wholly political issue war and one that is close to my heart as my grandfather actually served in WW1 ( yes I really am that old) the days of being proud to defend queen and country are they still as valid today as they were then....
Are mothers proud to send their sons to fight as it's for 'the greater good'?
I don't feel today it is as obvious what we are actually fighting for... which begs the question why? I don't feel those in power have as much respect for those who risk their lives reflected in how they are treated on return injured and traumatised either.
