This is an update by The Rebel Media’s Keean Bexte. Apparently she was not suspended for refusing to wear the poppy but her opposition to it.
I just spoke with Natalie, she's the red poppy wearing suspendee. Contrary to what was reported, she was not suspended for not wearing the rainbow poppy. She was suspended for sharing this poster. The school declared this hate speech. What do you think? Full story soon. pic.twitter.com/VkbflPVdQm

While this is one dialectic twist to the left less, it is not really much of a game changer. Being suspended for having an argument against a socialist change in symbolism is really not that far away from being suspended for refusing to wear it. But it is a distinction worth making and knowing.
