The new British passports will be made in Poland and the jokes are writing themselves

Just when we thought we were done with the many ironies of Brexit another whopper comes along and stops us in our tracks.

This should trigger well...

We left the EU controllers, doesn't mean we're not going to deal with EU countries. That's why we're sorting a Trade Deal!

Whats that is it joke or spells

Since when was Brexit about curbing trade with Europe? What’s the big joke? Great optics for Britain, all the while the EU becoming more terrified of competition from abroad and protectionist on trade

Why do people seem to think that Brexit means the UK and the EU countries will never cooperate on anything. This is fine. It'll be good for Poland.

Aren't the British qualified to issue their own passports?

Wow Independent. You guys been in a deep sleep? This is old news from at least two days ago. At least be on time!

UK and Poland doing business with each other WITHOUT the middle-man bureaucracy of the EU? Sounds like good economics

By a French company? Taking back control. The Brightest and the Best.

Most brits won't ever travel after Brexit, they're not gonna need one anyway.

British

When the tender for UK passports went out it had to abide by EU laws on public procurement 'the award of contracts by EU countries must be non-discriminatory to prevent “buy national” policies & promote free movement of goods & services between EU countries'. guyverhofstadt

I thought they left the EU...

who cares anyway?

For a French Company.

So much for independence!

So, tea is made in India, doesn’t make it any less British.

It's not a joke when Homer Simpson is Prime Minister of the UK.

Old news. Who cares.

Reportedly the company with the contract is French and they have manufacturing units in Poland.

Remainers surprised that Little Englanders aren't

Oh dear lol.

JamesTudhope1 Always smirking

I voted Leave. I don’t care what colour my British passport is, I’m not ‘dismayed’ that the new ones are being produced in Poland, and I think you might be over-egging the ‘irony’ aspect. Then again, I’m used to being told how I think.

yes and with every passport the holder gets free polish plumbing services for a full year... except for boris, nigel and dom because they're so full of sh*t unclogging their toilets is a lost cause

Why? So we can’t trade with Europe now? No one said that did they? We want trade and they want trade..what’s the big deal?

Send them back!

EU procurement rules means they have to go out to tender across the EU. When the contract comes up, the rules can be different, because we are now (or will be) an independent nation.

Indeed printing was one of the first industries we had to destroy as part of heaths agrrement to join the eec.

🇬🇧 passports made in Poland. All these immigrants taking 🇬🇧 jobs 😂 Brexit BrexitDividends

Yes, and by a French company, to boot...!

Why can't we have chips implanted at birth?

We want our sovereignty back, we want our borders back, we won't be dictated by jonny foreigner, we want jobs for British people. We'll start with exporting our national identity to Poland. Bunch of shameless hypocrites.

Politish?

Why make them were it's the best for us. UK first

Never seen Smirkybollocks look happier !

I don't want it - I want my EU passport! Thanks but no thanks

So the English DON'T want EU immigration but do want EU products (probably coated in EU DNA!)

Is the UK already great again:P. With you in or out - we still get benefits from being in the EU:P.

Doesn't this just show people how crazy the EU's procurement rules are rather than make the UK look stupid?
