Yes, itâs pathetic, isnât it. Almost as pathetic as if weâd issued three separate 50p coins celebrating our membership of the EU, which if most of itâs proponents had their way would eventually mean the end of sterling and our adoption of the euro.
TBF there were also 50p coins for Beatrix Potter and the Botanical gardens. The bar for frivolous anniversaries is set pretty low.
Obviously not, not that it helps you out any.
Itâs Priti fucking Patel mate. Priti former tobacco lobbyist Patel. Priti âI think we should give foreign aid to the IDF illegally occupying Golanâ Patel.
Fuck sakes nipper. Is she your typical Brexit voter?
Tell you what, why donât you have a proper wank about it HERE if someone on the Brexit side here mentions it.
Right now, youâre a man looking at the remnants of your own dried cum in your Priti little hands.
Iâll give you a 2/10 for trolling here.
I think your self-imposed exile over at SaintsWeb has ruined your game.
Is there a typical brexit voter? Not that it matters, sheâs a representative of the government chosen by mainly leave voters. So in that sense she is leave. Her and the government are the representation of what people like you voted for in the referendum. No need to poo your pants now and distance yourself from it. You wanted this stuff and now you have it.
The government want us to celebrate the success of brexit. Of course itâs very early days and we havenât really left yet. Maybe in the future theyâll give us plenty to really shout about, but until now all we have are blue and gold passports. Iâm embracing it. If youâve changed your mind about brexit, which wouldnât surprise me given your fickle nature, then donât blame me or passports or facts - look at yourself.
If Priti Patel is representative of anything, its the second generation ultra-integrationist world-view, which on a personal level means getting as far away from her roots while simultaenously ruthlessly exploiting them.
I didnât vote for her and have never voted Conservative. I can understand why people did, and one of the reasons people did was because the 2019 General Election had effectively been reduced to a single issue that they cared about that no other mainstream party put forward.
We got to that point because of all the fucking about, cheer-led by Remainers that knew best. They cheered the delays. They cheered the court challenges. They cheered the Hilary Benn act, and started to cry when people called it the Surrender Act, even though it was and would have had his old man spinning centrifugally in his grave.
The reality is that if weâd left on the 29th March weâd probably have had a general election fought on domestic policy, which the Tories would not have won. Remainers gave them a winning platform with a very simple story to sell to the public, only having to refer to shrill voices in Parliament or social media to make it stick.
Beatrix Potter, now youâre talking. Phwoar
No trolling here. I think commemorative coins for anything is pretty fucking gash. I assume you like them?
Absolutely. This country is so fucking small time that it does shit like this. The EU must be quaking in their boots.
When we pay the dirty foreigners for the complete waste of time that is passport colour change, maybe we can use the special 50Ps.
Thatâll show them whoâs boss(have we got enough?).
Out of interest, did you voice a similar complaint about the complete waste of time and resources when our passports were changed to burgundy? And exactly how many previous coin illustrations have you felt moved to moan about?
How long ago was that? When our passports were changed to burgundy? Why were they changed from blue to burgundy? Who made that decision? Nothing to do with the EU, although many many of the Brexiters think that we were forced to do it by the EU. I know that now it is being made out to be a big deal, but the decision to change to burgundy passports was ours and ours alone. Even though now changing back to blue is being held up as an example of âtaking back controlâ. by the tattoed chimps. Hilarious.
I did. Now as then, i donât give a shit what colour it is, for the simple reason, it doesnât make a blind bit of difference, apart from a waste of resources.
I havenât moaned about them(just the dumb sentiment).
Havenât even seen one, but i bet it doesnât have the artistic merit, or convey the essence of simple Englishness the way Beatrix Potter doesđ
Blimey. Talk about ever diminishing returns on ye olde blue passports business.
Itâs a neat little package, really. The whole thing was spun up by Remainers after a vox pop to demonstrate how idiotic the Brexit lot were in setting their prioritiesâŚ
âŚbecause somehow, at best case, they thought itâd lead to people saying âoh yeah, this leaving the EU business - better not do it nowâ.
Now weâre at âwaste of resourcesââŚ
How?
âŚand weâre done.
Thank you all for your contributionsâŚnot sure who made the most telling contribution to this fascinating discussion but I kinda feel itâs rarely those who write the longest post or even post most often.
On to The Chain Mk II.

Absolutely. This country is so fucking small time that it does shit like this. The EU must be quaking in their boots.
Bigger than the smallest 18 EU countries combined economically.
I think the EU are wondering where its going to find its budget in a couple of yearsâ time.
I remember getting a one year passport in my late teens. you could just rock up at the Post Office with a couple of snaps and two forms of ID and get one. Used it to go on Numpties Fanny Tour of Spain in 88. It was made of cardboard and beige in colour.
Not sure if this helps the debate, but i did get a nosh off a married bird from Essex and two shags from a Swedish travel agent in Benidorm that week, so it was quite successful.
Iâd been hoping someone would raise the tone of the thread, so thanks for that

Itâs a neat little package, really. The whole thing was spun up by Remainers
Was it?
Not according to this view on the need for a colour change, after no one at all made us change it to red(thatâs a waste of resources).
"The UK passport is an expression of our independence and sovereignty â a document that symbolises our citizenship of a proud, great nation. Leaving the EU gives us a unique opportunity to restore our national identity and forge a new path for ourselves in the world.
We have announced that the iconic blue UK passport will return after we leave the European Union in 2019."
What a bunch of fucking idiots.
Conservative website if you want to read it in all its fucking idiocy
And?
The only time it is ever brought up here is when:-
- Put down by our oh-so-clever Remainers as evidence of oh-so-stupid Brexiters.
- Raised by me when Iâm taking the piss (see the Brexit 50p episode)
