“Poppy will honour civilians and terror victims beside the fallen”
More cynical ‘psy ops’ from the British establishment? One could justify taking a stance against wearing the poppy on the grounds that it’s being used as a PR stunt for British imperialism, but isn’t this new rebranding just an attempt to undermine that standpoint?
– Oh you’re not wearing the poppy? That’s an insult to the memory of dead civilians and terror victims! –
There’s more appropriate ways to commemorate civilian deaths

poor wee marmot looks like the shower water just turned really cold ( I hope he got away )
You know when I saw that pic I began to imagine few Broadsheet Commenteers
It’s like a metaphor for some of the threads here
In fairness
you’d have to swap the predator for one of those ugly looking hyena yokes, more of a skulking shapeshifting scavenger type of creature
Shapeshifting
What an elegant way to describe them
Some of them don’t deserve it
In fairness
