Former UK Independence Party leader Nigel Farage has made a significant change to his appearance.
Farage, who is pictured above discussing his role in campaigning for a Brexit on the Sam Delaney’s News Thing show on Russia Today, has grown a moustache.
Unsurprisingly, news of Farage’s facial hair has quickly gone viral.
Good god, Nigel Farage’s new moustache. The full ‘retired major at the golf club’ — I can’t bear to tweet a pic.

Farage stepped down from his post as UKIP leader after Britain voted to leave the European Union on June 23. He said that his “political ambition had been achieved” and was keen to take a step back from public life.
