Championed by Brexiteers, the new-look documents will replace the burgundy passports which were rolled out in 1988

Home Secretary Priti Patel holding a blue passport, which she claims is ‘entwined with our national identity

The contract to produce the passports was controversially awarded to French firm Thales, but the documents will continue to be personalised with the holder’s details in the UK.

Thank God I got my burgundy one early!

Yeah, a blue book will do the trick 🤦🏻‍♀️

Hope it doesn’t cost us to update our passports when not due for upgrade

Why is such an important document being issued by a foreign company? Like how...

Made by the French, we can't even do that without the EU 🤦🏿‍♂️

Made in Poland, by a Dutch-French company. Irony 🙄

What I find absolutely churlish is the importance Brexiteers put on the colour of their passports. My main concern? Will it allow me to travel, couldn't care less what colour it is

'The new passport will be made in the company's factory in the Polish town of Tczew and then imported into the UK'

Is she off then? Goodbye!

The equivalent of an anti-express queue wristband.
