Perhaps it's just me?
Organisations like Britain first have tried to hijack the parade for political means , helped of course by tabloids like the sun

Millions of ordinary German and Russian soldiers died in the second world war too , they should be remembered too

The fact that there were many polish pilots flying spitfires during the battle of Britain tells me remembrance Sunday is for everyone
