Apparently one of the great things about Brexit is we'll be getting blue passports back (personally don't remember blue passports but whatever). AIBU to really not give a shit? Quote from the article:

Conservative MP Andrew Rosindell, chairman of the Flags and Heraldry Committee, told the paper: “It’s a matter of identity. Having the pink European passports has been a source of humiliation. It merged us into one European identity, which isn’t what we are

Does anyone really give a shit what colour their passport is?

Or put another way, if they do, they're a monumentally sad twat.

Mine was due for renewal this year so thanks to dad, I am now waiting for my new Irish passport to arrive in the post. Have no idea what colour it is and don't really care either.

The Irish passport is burgundy

I am a remainer. I don't give two fucks about passport colour, I am more concerned with the collapsing economy and the mess this country is in.

Oh yeah,because in all this mess it's the NHS that's a vanity project. :)
Sorry, I genuinely don't understand this comment Confused
