Now we're getting blue passports back, what else can Britain restore?

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/dec/22/uk-blue-passports-britain-restore


This is a curious article that I was discussing with a colleague today.


There are some interesting observations, so as always, let me know what you think in the comments section below.

    Apart from the colour is there any difference in these passports? Mine has a pink cover anyway so mine likes to be different anyway 😀

    Just as the article mentions, the red passports weren’t a condition of the EU anyway so when they overhauled them initially it was not due to our EU membership, just an article to detract from the realities of brexit in my opinion however if they were to bring back school milk bottles I’d be impressed. A few people in the class have had children refused milk at school recently. So a few good points and blasts from the past in this piece. I post several pound notes no my mums washing machine !
