Yesterday, I blogged about the Royal Mint’s bizarre plan to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the beginning of world war one with a £2 coin featuring Horatio Kitchener and his slogan “Your country needs you”. The coin will do nothing to commemorate the millions of people who died and suffered in the first world war. Instead, it features a leading warmonger.
Today, I have started a petition about this. Please sign and spread the word. You can find the petition here.
Thanks very much!
The choice of Lord Kitchener encouraging a generation young men to fight, so many of whom lost their lives or limbs as is impeccable bad taste. .
