This is
truly pathetic. One last bloody stupid thing before I take a break
for Christmas.
The
government has announced that following Brexit the UK will return to
issuing blue passports. “Iconic” blue passports according to some
news stories.
Pathetic.
It has been
almost nine months since Theresa May (the Prime Minister not the
pornstar) invoked Article 50 and began the process of leaving the
European Union. Nine months in which the UK government fought a
pointless general election that lost them their majority and the rest
of the time have just postured and sabotaged their own chances in
negotiations. Our country's negotiating position was called
“nostalgic and unrealistic” by EU officials for the simple reason
that it is nostalgic and unrealistic.
Blue
passports are, of course, not something we need to negotiate with the
EU on. All of that is still up in the air aside from the EU's demand
that we pay them £50 billion in as a divorce settlement. Blue
passports are a British government decision which is good because its
not like we've actually managed to make any headway in actually
negotiating with the EU on anything.
At least
this is something, though, right? At least the government is thinking
about what life in the UK will be like after Brexit, yes?
So, blue
passports.
Not the
status of the Irish land border; not European doctors and nurses; not
how to keep our agricultural sector afloat without EU subsidy... blue
bloody passports.
Iconic blue
passports.
This, truly,
is the sovereignty that Brexiteers voted for: the inalienable right
to carry your passport in a little blue folder instead of a little
red folder because how dare those European cuck snowflakes demand
that we sacrifice our sacred, God ordained blue plastic documentation
coverings.
Pathetic.
