Sienna poppy storm

And if that wasn't enough...SIENNA Miller has been blasted for failing to wear a poppy on Graham Norton’s BBC chat show.
The actress, 33, was a guest with Burnt co-star Bradley Cooper who did display the red flower of remembrance.
Norton, Dame Maggie Smith and Alex Jennings also paid respects on their lapels. Twitter fans slammed Miller and the Beeb over Friday’s show.
It's a TV chat show not a bleedin' service of remembrance!Tory former defence minister Sir Gerald Howarth stormed: “There should be no excuse for not wearing one so we can honour the war dead.”
There was an interesting piece on Radio 4's Broadcasting House about whether all soldiers/veterans should be venerated as heroes. Several ex-soldiers thought not.
One man, not sure if he was still serving or not, made the point that soldiers fight for our liberty to not have to all behave the same, and to allow people to do/say what we/they may disagree with.
Something the poppy day fascists would do well to think about.
