Did I hear correctly, that they where asking people to remove their poppies before going into the shop?

[SKYMAN]

If so the word is boycot

[Alan]

Sounds like malicious twaddle to me

[Dave]

It was mentioned somewhere else. I think that there is some truth in it - something about staff dress-code and nothing to do with customers. A part of NWO slavery, etc.

As Skyman says boycott the place its not as though we are short of this kind of shop

[SKYMAN]

give credit to the shop in the arcade where mother care used to be they had england flags all over the place.
i suppose if that shop in church st had been selling poppies it would have been another story,, profit before feelings,,,,

Looks like it wasn't the new 99p Shop but Poundland that originally banned the staff from wearing poppies - but they later backed down.

But apparently they weren't the only store to cause a bit of controversy -

I heard it was based on one of the owner's family died from heroin poisoning and they took an aversion against the poppy which is where the herion is scourced. Not surprising if its true.

Meanwhile, our troops were sent to guard to poppy crops for the sake of increasing production for the launderers in the city and elsewhere. Under Taliban rule (the Taliban had nowt to do with 9/11 - it was mostly allegedly* done by Saudis) the heroin trade was plummeting. Join the dots.

(* if you believe the official rubbish)

If this shop did ban the wearing of poppies, then we should ban them from our shopping list, and stand strong for those who stood and still do stand strong for us,

as I said
we must never forget those who died
and wear our poppies with love and pride.

Who's Mason??? am I missing something

[Alan]

If a member of my family had died from heroin poisoning, I think I may have developed an aversion to poppies
