Well, us lucky enough to live in the third stupidest country in the world (after North Korea and the USA) will be getting our old passports back. Thank the Lord for Brexit.
Announcing the change back to a blue passport Theresa May wrote on Twitter yesterday: “The UK passport is an expression of our independence and sovereignty – symbolising our citizenship of a proud, great nation. That's why we have announced that the iconic blue passport will return after we leave the European Union in 2019.”
Except, they used to be so dark blue, they were black; the new passport will be navy blue. And they'll be EU size; the old ones were bigger. And it'll mean we will not be able to use the fast lane going through immigration into other countries. And most people in the UK never had an old style passport, so it'll be new to them. And it'll cost half a billion pounds to implement. And, best of all, they'll be made in Germany.
