Campaigners suspect Labour Conference platform beard ban
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that its supporters in the Labour Conference hall in Liverpool suspect that there may be a ban on beards appearing on the conference platform.
The campaigners say that pogonophobia, the fear of beards, has gained support at the top of the Labour Party. Leader Keir Starmer appears ready to take the Party into a new era of clean shaven revisionism last seen in the Blair era.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, Labour says it is a Party that treats all equally. We hope that any informal beard ban instituted by clean shaven General Secretary David Evans, is over ridden by the Conference Chairs and that hirsute delegates get their chance to address conference along with others.
