One Britain One Nation, a day in June for all children in school to sing a song so that they feel more united. However, all the children in Scotland were on their summer holidays on the day they picked to do this. 🤦‍♂ Typical Tory government, pick a day to make everyone feel part of a group and then exclude a whole nation 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Back in 2013 my mother was in hospital (eventually passing) and an abiding memory was when she heard of the death of Thatcher and the "ding dong the witch is dead" song. It was probably the last time I heard my mum laugh - I never thought I'd be grateful to Thatcher for anything, but it's a weird world.

I was given all sorts of grief some years ago by an old woman on a bus because I wasn't wearing a poppy. Even when I explained it was because I didn't want my baby getting stabbed by the pin and that I chose to just donate instead. Wasn't good enough for her. Now I reuse the metal pin I bought in 2014 and put some cash in a collection tin. Millions of plastic poppies waste every year is no longer a good way to honour the fallen.

It kind of was to do with food safety though, in the EU (which we were still in at the time) horses have to be raised specifically for Human consumption, as several medications for horses can make the meat toxic to Humans. One issue was that there was no paper trail for the origin of the meat, so no-one knew whether they were raised for Human consumption or not.

Weirdly a typical British response to the Horse meat. It's not like we didn't used to eat it in the UK. - "horse and donkey meat was eaten in Britain, especially in Yorkshire, until the 1930s, and, in times of postwar food shortages, surged in popularity in the United States and was considered for use as hospital food." We used to call it "Kicker"

The poppy was originally to represent the world wars but then changed to remember all wars. That includes the war in Ireland where many innocent Catholics were murdered by the British army, one such massacre took place in Derry where the footballer James McClean is from which is why he refuses to wear it. Others refuse to wear it due to the illegal wars in Iraq and everything that has happened since in the Middle East.

Please what date or conflict are you referring to when supposedly the British Army saughtered inocent Catholics? Did you mean Bloody Sunday 1972? So are you now differenciating between Catholics and British as if Catholics are some different group other than British or The Republic of Ireland? Very sorry but I just do not know. As far as I know there were Irish peers or ministers in Parlament and so sending troops to protect people during the so called troubles was a joint UK, British Irish decision. But the Irish deciding to opt for protection from the IRA Terrorist Organisation may have been Northern Irish what some Irish may call British.

@@MikeGreenwood51 I'm on about the war known as 'The Troubles'. Catholics in the north of Ireland generally consider themselves Irish not British...that's what the whole thing is about. Yes the army originally came to keep the peace and protect us from the loyalist mobs and the sectarian RUC police force but soon acted as another wing of the oppressive state by attacking us. They killed many more than bloody Sunday, see the Falls Road curfew, Ballymurphy massacre that occurred before Bloody Sunday, Springhill massacre after. All innocents. All murdered. Majella O'Hare, 12 year old girl shot twice in the back by a para on her way to church, Julie Livingstone 14 years old killed by a rubber bullet to the head, Aidan McAnespie 21 shot in the back, John Pat Cunningham a mentally disabled man. All innocents. All murdered. Then look how they colluded with loyalists to kill many more, the Glennane Gang was a mixture of British Army, RUC and loyalists who roamed Armagh and Mid Ulster killing any Catholics. All covered up for decades. So yeah, nobody wears a poppy in my community.

I think the Freddo’s thing is a generational thing in the UK, I’m almost fifty and they weren’t really a thing when I was a kid, so weren’t something I’d get with my pocket money. A finger of Fudge however was about 5p when I was a kid and I think are about 30p (in supermarkets) now. There are different types of Poppies available (though all but the traditional red ones have to be sought out online). There are white ones for example whose intent are to show respect and grief for those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country but are also a pacifist declaration and a wish for the end of all wars. Boris Johnson was also a member of the Bullingdon Club, who thought it was great fun to go up to homeless people begging in the street and burn £50 notes in front of them. I think there are many of us who still don’t understand why we left the EU and many of us who are happy it happened but are delusional about the benefits of it, as we are still waiting for those benefits to kick in. Not a topic I’m going to debate on, as I have my opinion and I appreciate that it will differ from that of some other people. I am just trying to explain that Brexit, whether you’re for or against it, isn’t necessarily fully understood by that many of us in the UK either, as it was a vote into the relative unknown and the full consequences won’t be seen for at least another 10-20 years.

As someone who would describe themselves as left-wing, and the sort of person that the British press seem convinced wants to ban the use of poppies during the period Remembrance in November, I always find that any actual “controversy” is vastly blown out of proportion. There’s a very small and vocal minority that want it banned, whereas most of us still see it for what it is - a mark of respect for those that lost their lives, and a stark reminder to never again allow fascism to take hold.

Theresa May was also behind the windrush scandal, a British political scandal by the Conservative government that began in 2018 concerning people who were wrongly detained, denied legal rights, threatened with deportation, and in at least 83 cases wrongly deported from the UK by the Home Office. Many of those affected had been born British subjects and had arrived in the UK before 1973, particularly from Caribbean countries, as members of the "Windrush generation" (so named after the Empire Windrush, the ship that brought one of the first groups of West Indian migrants to the UK in 1948). As well as those who were deported, an unknown number were detained, lost their jobs or homes, had their passports confiscated, or were denied benefits or medical care to which they were entitled. A number of long-term UK residents were refused re-entry to the UK; a larger number were threatened with immediate deportation by the Home Office. Linked by commentators to the "hostile environment policy" instituted by Theresa May during her time as Home Secretary, the scandal led to the resignation of Amber Rudd as Home Secretary in April 2018 and the appointment of Sajid Javid as her successor. The scandal also prompted a wider debate about British immigration policy and Home Office practice.

What astounds me is that dogfood has to be made under the same hygiene and quality standards as human products (in the UK and US). Why? Because during times of financial crisis, sales of dogfood go up... (work it out for yourself - no? ok, people eat dog food as a cheaper longer lasting option to fresh meat).

No, it isn't and you can get 60 for £14.64 from a company called JL Brooks in the UK - shipping free if your order is over 30 quid and £3.99 approx if not...neither of those options come out at 60p each...

The issue with the poppy is that we now have a significant immigrant population, mostly from former British colonies, who see all symbols of Britain and British history as racist and commemoration of oppression. Those symbols include the poppy and the Union Jack.

I think you are repeating far right anti-immigrant propaganda here. My own view is that we could all sympathise with the losses of the conscripts in the world wars, don't forget that the poppy represents the battlefields of WW1, but when it comes to remembering those who lost their lives in Bush and Blair's wars of aggression, we do not all feel the same way.

Nothing wrong with horse. Horse meat was regularly sold and available back in the days when horses were commonplace. The ONLY reason it fell out of favour is the fact that it's not a particularly efficient meat to farm compared with other animals reared for their meat. IF it was it would still be sold. The whole squeamishness over it is quite modern. Plus it's a herbivore...nothing nasty or potentially harmful about it like eating carnivore meat such as cats or dogs.

I don't see the issue with that song, it sounded fun and it was very different to making them do a pledge of allegiance or something. We had to sing hymns associated with Christianity in school even though we didn't care if there was or wasn't some bearded guy hiding in the sky, i'd rather kids sing to unify the country than spread religious propoganda,lol
