What is this weird red flower that many people wear on their clothes?

I don't know what it is. I thought it was related to a political party but I noticed some TV hosts wear it too ( like on SKY News) hence I am posting it in the TV part.So what is this flower supposed to mean?

Are you thinking of poppies?








The second Sunday of November is Remembrance Sunday, also known as Remembrance Day.


At 11am men, women and children all across Britain hold a two minute silence to remember the millions who have died in war.





The silence is usually observed at war memorials, cenotaphs and religious services and shopping centres throughout the country.





The Royal Family, along with top politicians and religious leaders, gather at The Cenotaph in Whitehall, London for a service.





Hope that helps, sorry if it wasnt that you were thinking of though

Reply:You probably mean a poppy, as other people have said.





However if it's very small you might also be confusing it with a ribbon? There are lots of different coloured ribbons which are worn to indicate the wearer's awareness of a particular subject.





For example here's some of the coloured ribbons that relate to cancer awareness:

It is a "weed" found in, amongst other places, Flanders Fields and was one of the only plants that grew on the battlefield. Thus the plant became a commemorative symbol for the dead World War I soldiers and other soldiers who gave their lives through war. It has been adopted as a symbol by The Royal British Legion in their Poppy Appeal.
Reply:I think what you are referring to is the Poppy.
