>> The bow thing started in The Sun which was looking for anything to compare with
>> Foot's donkey jacket.
In this household it had nothing to do with the Sun or any other media... I was watching the ceremony live on Sky news.... funnily enough, I'm capable of forming my own opinion without help from other people, inc the media.
If you are the leader of a significant political party and you are attending a formal ceremony to honour the fallen, people who fought for our freedoms, it would be respectful to continue with that tradition, wouldn't it?
What angle is he coming from for not wishing to bow? Does bowing at the cenotaph make him a war monger in his eyes?
Did the first world war not kill millions of working class people? Can he not at least respect that?... (although to steal someone else's words 'people are people').
