Latest UKIP leader Neil Hamilton barred from Beard Liberation Front
The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has said that former Tory MP and ex-member of the Senedd, Neil Hamilton has been barred from any association with the campaign.
Hamilton became the 7th leader of UKIP since Nigel Farage left in 2016. He is not a full-time beard wearer, but has appeared hirsute more often than not in recent times.
The campaigners say that Hamilton does not promote a positive image of the hirsute and on occasion brings the hirsute into disrepute.
The BLF also barred a previous UKIP leader Paul Nuttall when he grew a beard for similar reasons.
BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, we exist primarily to promote positive images of the hirsute in public life and Neil Hamilton’s appointment as UKIP leader underlines the importance of that work.
