Subject: RE: BS: Why a veteran is not wearing a poppy
"The poppy factory is having to increase capacity."
Perhaps because they are not £25 pounds each this year as were the ceramic ones last year.
Only one third of the profits from the poppies went to charity - the rest (suggested to have amounted to £10m) went to 'expenses' - undisclosed.
