Actor Benoit Poelvoorde has asked men not to shave, for their country. The star of Man Bites Dog made a TV appeal for Belgian men to grow beards until Belgium finally forms a government.
Since inconclusive elections in June last year Belgium has been run by a caretaker government and splits remain between parties from the Dutch-speaking north and French-speaking south. He said:
"We have decided to stop shaving for as long as Belgium has no government. Let's keep our beards until Belgium rises again."
I wonder how the burds will join in the protest?
