VOTE FOR BEST ORGANIC SANTA 2019 OPEN
The Campaign for Real Santas which believes that only Santas with genuine, organic or knitted beards should be deputies for Santa, world famous for his organic beard, has said that the on-line poll for the best Organic Santa 2019 is now open
In 2018 the competition bristled as Blessed saw off challenges from children’s author Philip Ardagh and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn in an on-line poll and these three ‘Santas’ together with others are on the 2019 poll
The campaign says that there are still far too many Santas with fake beards around, when genuine Santas with real organic beards are available
The campaigners have urged parents and children to vigorously tug the beards of Santas they encounter as a definitive test as to whether they are in the presence of a real Santa or not. If the Santa is not real and the beard is made of cotton wool it will come away when tugged by the child
CFRS organiser Keith Flett said, Brian Blessed was an excellent winner of the Organic Santa vote in 2018 but can he shave other Santas this year?
The vote closes at midnight on Sunday 15th December and the Organic Santa 2019 is revealed on 16th December
Notes
HOW TO SPOT A GENUINE SANTA
Tug the beard of the Santa. If it comes away, then the Santa is FAKE
Tug the beard of the Santa again. If the Santa swears then they are genuine. If they simply repeat a ‘ho ho ho’ mantra they are FAKE
The Campaign for Real Santas says that genuine Santas must have just the right mix of bonhomie and gruffness and a real organic beard.
