BOSSES of Britain’s biggest veterans’ charity have said “thanks a million” to Sun readers.
Last Thursday’s London Poppy Day for the Royal British Legion raised more than £1million.
Poppy Appeal director Simon O’Leary said: “We thank everyone who helped us achieve this, including Sun readers.”
Around 2,000 personnel from the Royal Navy, Army and RAF joined Legion volunteers to collect across the capital.
A planned rail strike had threatened to spoil the day but The Sun shamed union chiefs into calling off the walkout.
