Live On – To the memory of the fallen and the future of the living.'When You Go Home,
Tell Them Of Us And Say,
For Their Tomorrow,
We gave Our Today'.
Remembrance Sunday is about honouring people who have sacrificed their lives.
We don’t need you posting a load of stupid waffle from some mental politicised conspiracy theory twitter account, thank you very much.
Away from the political side of things …I’m up with my youngest boots polished , kit ironed and I’ll be dropping her off in Glossop in an hour with the other cadets from her attachment, one last day in selling poppies it’s quite humbling to see these youngsters giving their time and engaging with public in which for me is a great cause . Families and friends will be gathering tomorrow at the cenotaph and us like many others will remember those who we knew and those who we didn’t who payed the ultimate sacrifice. We must and always will remember them.
Long may this continue.
Remembrance Sunday is all about disrespecting veterans using the day to point score and look clever, the same people suggesting the gobshite footballer has a right to turn his back are calling veterans far right instigators for doing the very same thing but for a different reason.
It's all political now and there is no getting away from it.
Thankfully this is the first I’ve heard of any “back turning” nonsense.
Sounds very disrespectful to me.
The day should be a sombre and reflective occasion, not some event for people to air their political views.
Politics has no place on Remembrance Sunday in my opinion.
