Prof Neil Ferguson in resignation beard mystery
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers,has said that mystery surrounds the resignation of Professor Neil Ferguson as a Government advisor on 5th May.
The resignation followed a Telegraph report that Ferguson had broken lockdown rules and pictured him as clean shaven. However other media outlets showed him wearing a beard.
The Beard Liberation Front says that given the widespread pogonphobia at the centre of Government the question has been raised as to whether the Professor resigned with a beard or without a beard.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, of course lockdown is a serious matter as is the question of COVID-19 that Professor Ferguson was advising on. That does not alter the reality that there is a significant facial hair issue surrounding the circumstances of his departure
