Campaigners welcome lifting of 101-year old beard ban in the RAF
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has welcomed the news that the RAF has lifted its 101-year old ban on beards.
The RAF has said it has made the move to ‘help broaden the recruitment pool, promote inclusivity and help retain skilled personnel’.
The are still restrictions around the style and length of beard and a need to get permission which the BLF says it hopes will disappear over time leaving it up to the good common sense of airmen and women as to what is appropriate.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, we welcome the RAF’s move to greater inclusivity and we suspect that behind it in part lies a recognition that face masks now exist that can without question be worn safely with beards

Yet another anti beard bastion falls. Soon it only be Tory cabinets beardless, but I expect the Saxon peasants round your way will follow suit.
