rooster59 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Brexit: UK passports issued without 'European Union' label British passports are being issued without the words 'European Union' on the cover, despite the delay to Brexit. The new burgundy passports were introduced from 30 March, the day after the UK was supposed to leave the EU, but some people may still receive the old version until stocks run out. One recipient said she was "truly appalled" at the change. Dark blue passports resembling the pre-EU British design are due to be issued from the end of the year.

Popular Post Hawkman Posted April 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 6, 2019 People getting excited by Blue passports or EU name being removed are the saddest of the sad. It's like getting excited about a sweet wrapper that has a slightly different colour than before. 3 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post welovesundaysatspace Posted April 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 6, 2019 What a great tremendous success. Losing all those business finally is paying off; soon we will see many countries following suit as they jealously look at the UK reaping the fruits of destroying economy and society: a passport without EU written on it. ???? 6 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other country is currently planning any referendum, discussing invoking Article 50 or expressing mass opinions to leave the EU. Britain ain't a leader. Some are sad to see Britain leave, some are glad, some are ambivalent. But none likely to follow. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they've ordered them...................... from France! So probably late delivery due to the Yellow vests and 35 hour week and will then get caught up in customs delays both sides of the channel! More seriously, the Brexiters claim how British industry will be fantastically revived and regenerated once we leave the EU. And the UK government buys it's new passports from France. Says it all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nausea Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 I wonder how many people who, like me, have recently renewed their passports, went to check. Yeah, still have European Union on mine. Actually, this is gonna be a serious hassle for younger guys wanting to travel around Europe, no problem for the guy who's never left his village I suppose. I'm an old fogey so don't really care, did the Grand Tour years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contrary to public opinion and the wishes of Remainers, the govt has actually been making preparations for Brexit across the board. They just don't feel any need to check it out with anybody on TVF, especially the Remainers there. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenneth Clarke the dean of the House of Commons wrote in the English version of Der Spiegel last week QUOTE There was always a group of nationalists in the Tory party that didn't come to terms with our changed role in the world.

Saying "if we hold European Elections, Tommy B*ll*cks will be elected on a UKIP ticket". Surely he knows election law better than we do, Tommy's criminal convictions will prevent his nominations from being accepted.
