So, with Brexit on the horizon, it seems we’re getting our blue British passports back.
That’s good news isn’t it?
Look, everyone’s telling me it’s great news, especially The Sun.
Apparently, according to Immigration Minister Brandon Lewis: “One of the most iconic things about being British is having a blue passport.”
Now, having given this a little thought, I think I’d like to inform Brandon - may I call you Brandon? OK, great - that this is an absolute load of total bollocks.
I mean, it is isn’t it?
I’ve never had one. Never even seen one. Never even given the slightest thought to what colour my passport is, or the colour of anyone else’s. What colour is a US passport - apparently now our closest ally and a place I have visited quite a few times? I honestly couldn’t tell you. No idea.
So, sorry Brandon, the colour of a passport has absolutely bugger all to do with what makes a country great.
No, I rather think that Tyron Wilson has got it rather more nailed than you.
