THIS month’s Armistice Day and Remembrance commemorations are too important not to be shared universally.
Those who wish to frame their remembrance with Christian imagery must be free to do so, but what about the majority who are of different religions or none?
With fewer than half of all British citizens now claiming any religious beliefs and Christians a further subset of those, it is increasingly inappropriate that one minority religion is the default steward of these public events.
Poppies include all. Crosses do not.
