Beard Liberation Front to wind down campaign after success achieved

The Beard Liberation Front, the informal network of beard wearers, is set to wind down it 30 year campaign to end discrimination against the hirsute.

The campaigners say that while there remains some prejudice against the hirsute, in reality compared to thirty years ago, beards can be found in every sphere of life, from the workplace and sport to the media.

Winding down the BLF’s activities will take place over the next year, although the annual Beard of the Year vote will remain.

BLF Organiser Keith Flett said, our campaign against beardism, discrimination against the hirsute has had some real success over three decades. We feel it’s time to acknowledge that and move on
