#OnThisDay in 1982, The #Falklands War came to an end with a British victory. We are thanking everyone who served for their country, and remembering all those who gave their lives in its defence.

After 100 years in circulation as the symbol of #Remembrance, the meaning behind the poppy can get a little lost in translation. So let's do some de-mystifying! Help spread the word by RT-ing these myth-busters, so we can continue the legacy of Remembrance together.

Teabags, sanitary towels, filmmaking, poetry, daylight savings, medical breakthroughs, wireless technology, the advancement of women’s rights, the contribution of Commonwealth nations and of course the armed forces, there is so much to thank the #WW1 generation for. #ThankYou100

I was honoured to lay the wreath on behalf of Royal British Legion Saddleworth Branch at the D-Day 75 Commemoration Service in Uppermill earlier this evening. We must remember the debt that we owe to those involved. #DDay75

We'd like to reassure you that this is categorically untrue. We are proud to offer the poppy in every community in the UK — we always have been and always will be. Do let us know if you have any questions or concerns or if there’s anything else we can help with.
