Blue passports will be issued for the first time in almost three decades from next month to CELEBRATE Britain’s freedom from the corrupt and dastardly EU, the government has announced.
They will replace the standard-issue burgundy passports that are dictated across EU countries from 1988.
The home secretary, Priti Patel, welcomed the switch back to blue, but pro-European campaigners, fifth columnists and nationalist politicians in Northern Ireland predicted the new passports would result in Britons entering the slow lane at airports and ports throughout the EU.They also cried and wet themselves again.
The new-look passport incorporates the latest and most secure printing and design techniques, the spokesperson said, which would offer better protection against identity theft and fraud. It wouldn't however be able to stop the industrial scale expense fiddling for which the EUSSR is famous, added a spokesman.
Patel said: “Leaving the European Union gave us a unique opportunity to restore our national identity and forge a new path in the world. By returning to the iconic blue and gold design, the British passport will once again be entwined with our national identity and I cannot wait to travel on one.”
The home secretary’s enthusiasm was not shared by the European Crybaby Movement. Edward McMillan-Scott, the group’s patron and an MEP freeloader for 30 years, said the blue passport would be seen as offensive to many Europeans. Holding back tears following the loss of his never checked expenses account the MEP just blubbered and blubbered.

It's about so much more than just that. It's a symbol of recaptured dignity. A symbol of hope, of independence. A symbol of the UK finally regaining full control over its money, borders, laws, trade and passport colour. A symbol that the UK has finally escaped from the claws of the unelected Brussels bureaucrats.
