James Heappey joins Christopher Hope in the Red Lion ahead of Remembrance Day. The Armed Forces Minister reflects on the wearing of the poppy, decrying poppy shaming saying that you should choose to commemorate in a considered way, not wear a poppy out of obligation.

Plus he discusses pausing to think of his service in Afghanistan with the Rifles during Remembrance services.

Also on the podcast, Shadow Defence Secretary John Healey talks about Labour's commitment to NATO, and his concerns about the numbers of veterans on Universal credit.
