PIC: Enda Kenny is now rocking a scruffy beard and it’s quite something

Paul Moore

Enda Kenny

New facial fuzz for the Fine Gael man.

After that famous image of Enda Kenny cycling a Dublin Bike while wearing a vintage Mayo tracksuit and a backwards cap, we knew that things have all changed, changed utterly: A terrible beauty is born.

Given the fact that the majority of us are familiar with seeing the former Taoiseach in a dapper suit, clean shaven and strictly formal, that particular image was a little bit jarring to the system and while it doesn’t match Roy Keane’s iconic beard, this has some potential .

Of course, there’s far more weighty news that will impact the day-to-day lives of the Irish public – here’s some pieces on the rental crisis, homelessness, and mental health – but we’d like to talk about Enda’s beard for a moment.

Not sure if he was looking for a ticket here but it didn’t go unnoticed.

With a nice government pension to enjoy, we reckon the Mayo man will be able to afford a decent razor.
