London - (Associated Mess): Fundamentalist religious stink tanks are demanding that the Government caves in to their demands this weekend and replaces the traditional Remembrance Day red poppy with the more politically correct papaver somniferum album, the white-coloured poppy preferred by budding Taliban entrepreneurs worldwide.

The move comes amid calls for UK soldiers to return home from their tour of duty in Afghanistan where the white poppy is endemic.

But campaigners in London are warning that promoting the white poppy as an alternative to the traditional red will only lead to disaster among the Non-Aligned Opium Barons Movement which has already had enough western financial sponsorship for its agricultural pursuits.

The debate continues.
