I have been buying poppies since I was 5 but never again after

last year when I saw a poppy seller humiliate pensioner by

loudly refusing to sell one because the guy only had 84p

and the seller said he had to pay £1 and to come back when he had

saved up enough.

I complained to the british legion who said it was regretteble and they

would have a word with the seller but she was still selling them a week later
