    Typical brexiteer: We want our blue passports back

    Boris: I agree!! Here's your new french designed, polish made, black passport.

    Typical brexiteer: rule Britannia

    I might be mistaken, but weren't they always black? I'm sure our families were. This was when I was young enough to be on my mums.

    Couldn’t care less tbh but would have preferred neon orange or something similar, easier to find as you get older :p

    Couldn’t care less either.
    I have also never heard or seen anyone campaigning for a different colour except from people who object to leaving referencing it.

    How short are people’s memories. It was a key plank of the leaving the EU campaign in several newspapers for months. “Blue not EU” was the slogan from what I can remember.

    You're confusing the Sun campaign with popular opinion. I personally know of no one who gives a flying f**k what colour it is. Why would anyone? Who the hell reads the Sun anyway?

    Don’t know where you live but round where I am this was a massive symbolic reason why many people voted leave.

    No not at all, show me a post where a pro Brexit person is posting about it?
    Like others have said I have never come across one person who actually gives a **** about the colour.

    To be fair I have seen lots of posts on social media from brexiteers regarding the colour of our passports: would like a pink one personally.
