WHAT IT WAS ABOUT
a few useful links for radicals - or establishment types - to enquire a bit further if they have interest in the lesser told tales of the campaign for a two minute silence, the meaning of poppies, the London memorials, etc.
(PS - for some of you lefties - there are "mobs" too!
for you "establishment" types listening in - you probably need to remember these more accurate "campaigning" versions much MORE these days. . . . other links in comments too, I hope!cheers) IT AINT "RED-OR-WHITE". . . . but IF IT AINT "AWKWARD" IT AINT WORKING. . . . remember THAT too!!!!

Assuming you could all get to "BRITISH LEGION" or "PPU" ("PEACE PLEDGE UNION") with the use of those keywords, a search engine etc, its worth shortening too much "GOOGLE-EYE" by, with a brief mention of the actual Mod vets page, the new "allwars" memorial etc, reminding people of the assortment of articles you might discover in "uk indymedia" after putting "remember each eleventh" campaign into that "scrooglebox" over these newswires might come up with a few other gems of unusual but timely information or attitude.
Kick off, or "kick out the jamms" with
". . . . to remember : does that help ? "
but dont forget to look through the comments -
as with other "uk indymedia" newswires,
this is at least half the interest
- that, with trying to guess what of the "hecklers" are paid, where to check information, why we dont hear all this in the yearly "COMMEMORATION wireless programmes" - OR "the news" - is a bit towards what the actual spirits of these times are about. Yes - for the good - but also -
Practical - tragedy recurrence prevention too !
