[QUOTE]BRITS will get their iconic dark blue passports back after Brexit, ministers announce today — in a stunning campaign victory for The Sun.[/QUOTE] [IMG]https://www.thesun.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/dd-composite-britt-passport.jpg?strip=all&w=750[/IMG] [url]https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/5192542/uk-dark-blue-passport-back/[/url] Also from the [URL="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-42443253?ocid=socialflow_facebook&ns_mchannel=social&ns_campaign=bbcnews&ns_source=facebook"]BBC[/URL] and the [URL="https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/dec/22/british-passports-will-be-navy-blue-after-brexit-says-home-office"]Guardian[/URL]
Thanks the Sun! Hillsborough is forgiven, a stunning victory.
But I don't want a blue one, I prefer my red one.
red is way nicer than blue
They must be really desperate if they consider this a big victory.
so many countries have lame blue. red set us apart.
Important stuff right here. Dealing with the big brexit issues. Taking back control This country is a fucking embarrassment [editline]22nd December 2017[/editline] [QUOTE=Freakie;52997285]They must be really desperate if they consider this a big victory.[/QUOTE] Honestly our brexit leaders are so dense and blind with their weird brand of nationalism, that changing a piece of paper from burgundy to blue really is a victory over those eurocrats
now it just looks like an american passport
Such a retarded distraction article.
The spoils of victory.
I've already got a blue Australian passport I don't want a Blue British one too
everyone knows this was the primary objective of brexit
[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;52997322]Such a retarded distraction article.[/QUOTE] [I]~But we have to be different!~[/I]
Thousands of people have died, in a former economic superpower and centre of the Free World, thanks to neglect by several government departments and their subordinate councils. The Conservatives are literally wantonly killing people and our country through negligence. But the Sun? They brought back blue passports. [i]National heroes.[/i]
Never thought they'd pull this off. Really regretting my Remain vote now and so glad we lost New national anthem [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68ugkg9RePc[/media]
By "stunning" you mean stunning because of how absurd the Brexit campaign was?
[QUOTE=megafat;52997360][I]~But we have to be different!~[/I][/QUOTE] Reclaim our IDENTITY!!! No longer the WEAK PINK of europe we find our self blue once MORE, standing alongside our former COLONIES!!! VICTORY!!!! We need sense nor trade when we have PRIDE and CONTROL!
[QUOTE=Freakie;52997285]They must be really desperate if they consider this a big victory.[/QUOTE] Not to mention that there aren't even any rules that dictate which color a country has to use for their passport. So a EU-country could even decide to make their passport neon pink if they wanted to.[QUOTE]“There’s nothing [that] stipulates the cover colour,” confirmed Anthony Philbin of the International Civil Aviation Organization, which issues passport standards on cover size, format, and technology.[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.travelandleisure.com/articles/what-your-passport-color-means[/url] Croatia for example, has a black passport.

The real win is that this will make it easier for me to tell between my British and Irish passports, apart from the fact that one grants me the right to live and work in 27 countries while the other does fuckall

[QUOTE]Tory Michael Fabricant said: “Our passports are iconic of our national identity. “I am delighted that we will be reverting back to our blue colour which was changed when we all became citizens of the EU."[/QUOTE] imagine being the kind of person that is delighted that the thing you barely use is going to be a different colour
[media]https://twitter.com/GordonMcKee_/status/943976727717580803[/media] I honestly couldn't care less about the colour but the fact that so much attention has been put on it just reinforces the fact that Brexit's main purpose is to appease a nostalgic older generation at the expense of the young
[QUOTE=Freakie;52997285]They must be really desperate if they consider this a big victory.[/QUOTE] Yeah 'Brexit' and 'Victory' aren't really things that should be associated with each other. [QUOTE=GabrielWB;52997382] Croatia for example, has a black passport. [/QUOTE] That's actually really cool. My families passports are different colors actually. Japan does passport colors based on the length of validity, 5 year passports are blue and 10 year are red. Which kind of annoys me because my son's US and JP passports are identical color.
Norway's new passport > other passports [url]https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2014/nov/17/norway-new-passport-design[/url]
[QUOTE=Bob The Knob;52997575]Norway's new passport > other passports[/quote] You sure about that? [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lwmPjRQ__I[/media]
I think this summarises pretty much everything you need to know about Brexit.

Much like that abortion of a passport design.
I remember reading somewhere that this might cost us a few million just to roll it out across the nation, at the very least it was 15 million quids, possibly 150 million and I find myself asking "Are we gonna pay that before or AFTER the 350 million for the NHS?"
