And yet 'everybody gets a poppy' if they want one. Isn't there money and charity involved there too? :? :|

What is the rule? I read the article but I couldn't work out what the rule was. Apart from the boss saying so. Is there an actual reason?

Very much what I thought. Exactly what rule or guideline did he break?

It does seem arbitrary because otherwise they should not be wearing poppies for Remembrance Sunday either.

Poppies, Comic relief and Sport relief (which appear to duplicate Children in Need in many places) all could come with a "political agenda" which I suspect is the concern for this action. Norton, by being the host, is a BBC representative and should be seen as being neutral in such matters.
