In an ironic twist, people are giving Nigel Farage stick for not wearing the poppy

Clearly James McClean has won him around.

Some social media users thought they noticed the on-off UKIP leader NOT wearing a poppy as he met with US president elect Donald Trump... and on the weekend of Remembrance Sunday too. Many saw he wasn't wearing one of the traditional cardboard poppies you'll buy off one of those dear old war veterans on the high street. But it seemed the "patriotic" Brexiter wasn't even wearing his tiny £40 gold poppy lapel which he wore on the Marr Show the other day. https://twitter.com/giantpoppywatch/status/795200512727678977?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw It seems like he swapped this enduring symbol of remembrance, which millions wear as a mark of respect on Remembrance Sunday, for a badge with the US and British flags on during Saturday's meeting. It didn't appear he was wearing it during this appearance on Fox News either... Ironic, since Farage really seems like the kind of guy who thinks McClean ought to pack his bags for doing the same. https://twitter.com/Nigel_Farage/status/797817616161275906 Obviously people leaped straight on it and started giving Farage a hard time over it - especially after The Cookie Monster wore one on the One Show as a mark of respect. https://twitter.com/Robert1990M/status/797873867280752640 https://twitter.com/laurabygaslight/status/797871349440061440 https://twitter.com/cardinality/status/797869270088777729 https://twitter.com/jonp__/status/797867955774230528 https://twitter.com/PeterLord100/status/797867879878135808 https://twitter.com/Megan_She_Wrote/status/797866441156558848 https://twitter.com/stoghz/status/797864468378243076 https://twitter.com/DelBoy1976/status/797863662216245248 https://twitter.com/Shellybellylou/status/797861856513769473 https://twitter.com/ImIncorrigible/status/797841568967364608 https://twitter.com/jrbando/status/797834080834506752 https://twitter.com/sophiethefrog/status/797830645179449344 https://twitter.com/LordManley/status/797800207736041472 EVEN JEREMY CORBYN WAS WEARING ONE FFS https://twitter.com/georgie_lawson/status/797863709532192769
