Submission Documents: By Bailie Dr Nina Baker:- "Glasgow City Council notes that many people wear a White Poppy with or instead of the Red Poppy because they wish to remember the millions who have died in wars as a way of working towards a world with no more war. There are those who feel the red poppy encompasses such sentiments but there are also those who feel that the white poppy's emphasis on promotion of peace is equally respectful to the war dead whilst conveying a clearer message, possibly in a way less connected to the military. In the past, white poppies have been available alongside the red within the city chambers, generally at the public counter and on the committee corridor, but this seems to have stopped in recent years. Glasgow City Council therefore resolves to allow the public option of white poppies within the city chambers." Help Icon
