Beard Campaigners celebrate election of well-known beard wearer Magid Magid as an MEP
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that it is celebrating the election of the Green Party’s Magid Magid as an MEP for Yorkshire and Humber on Sunday. Magid was formerly the Lord Mayor of Sheffield and is known for taking a stand against perpetually clean shaven Donald Trump who he calls a ‘wasteman’.
A hirsute Green candidate Scott Ainslie was also elected as an MEP in London, while Alyn Smith was elected for the SNP in Scotland.
The Beard Liberation Front regards the Brexit Party as beard unfriendly but two of its MEPs have beards. French resident Brian Montieth who was, for unknown reasons, elected for North East England and Henrik Nielsen who was elected in the North West
Elsewhere the BLF was pleased to note the derisory vote received by UKIP candidate Carl Benjamin who is banned for life from the BLF for bringing the hirsute into disrepute.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, we expect Magid Magid to bring dynamic beard power to the EU Parliament a marked contrast to the many clean shaven revisionists and reactionaries that sit there.
One of the Liberal Democrats has a beard. A bt goatee ish for my taste but each to their own.
thanks! which one? Finding pictures of MEP candidates even successful ones is difficult as they are for the most somewhat obscure
Oh, I don’t know his name. Saw it in a picture tweeted by, I think, Jo Swinson.
