Revd Patricia Jackson says she's happy to sport a white poppy during the proceedings on Remembrance Sunday.
A Methodist minister's refusing to wear a poppy when she conducts this year's remembrance service because she believes the symbol 'advocates war'.
Revd Patricia Jackson's told other clergy that she would be happy to sport a white poppy during the proceedings on Remembrance Sunday.
Her decision's reportedly upset many parishioners at Hadley Methodist Church in Telford, who claim the American-born priest 'doesn't seem to realise' the importance of the symbol.
