Spain’s ex-Deputy Prime Minister Pablo Iglesias has cut his ties to politics — and his trademark ponytail.
Iglesias quit the left-wing Unidas Podemos party he had helped establish after a conservative candidate won the Madrid regional election on May 4, and like with every tough breakup, this called for a change in look.
Spanish newspaper La Vanguardia on Wednesday published images showing Iglesias, who had resigned his role as deputy PM in March to run in the Madrid election, with short hair.
According to La Vanguardia, the possibility of Iglesias cutting his hair had been discussed within Podemos around elections in 2014 and 2015, and again when he entered government. However, by then his ponytail had become iconic and Iglesias chose to keep it.
