    There should be no compromise on the poppy. Let's hope he's kicked out of the party.


    He's not wearing one, so I fail to see the problem.

    Wearing one would be a real statement of intent but let's take things one step at at a time. This is a small but meaningful gesture by the mayor, which should be welcomed by those who wear the poppy with pride. Fair play to him.

    The vast majority of people who wear the poppy do so with dignity and out of respect for the fallen.
    Worldwide? Probably. In Ireland? Probably not.

    Certainly in the south the poppy is purely worn as a symbol of sombre remembrance.
