Campaigners call on Keir Starmer to follow his namesake Keir Hardie & grow a beard

The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has called on the new Labour leader Keir Starmer to follow his namesake Keir Hardie, who was the first leader of the Labour Party, and grow a beard.
Keir Starmer succeeded the late Frank Dobson as MP for Holborn and St Pancras, and so will be fully familiar of the importance of beard power in political life.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, we think that as a tribute to his namesake, the first Labour leader, the latest Labour leader should grow a lockdown beard.
