The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, has responded to Ed Davey’s latest eye catching election stunt involving a Bungee jump in Eastbourne, to do something he has never done before, and grow a beard.
The campaigners that the Liberals, a predecessor of the Liberal Democrats, were known as a party of beard wearers. On occasion this became a stereotype with sandals included in the mix.

BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, we say to Ed Davey, beards win votes. If he starts growing a beard the LibDems may capture even more Tory marginals on Thursday as voters seek the gravitas of a bearded leader.
