It's the costings proposed that are causing concern.

That shows they aren't fussed for changing the colour only.

No need for the offensive remarks...Can you see the data relating to passports? That's why I posted the poll.

I do find it a bit hilarious though. That people are like "Let's make them Blue again! THEY USED TO BE BLUE!! Yaaarrr Bwitaaaiiinnn!" . Quite telling actually. The argument is that "for many Brits blue will always be the colour of the British Passport"...
It changed in 1988. That means for your first passport as an adult to have been blue, you would have to have been born before 1970. Or in other words; you would have to be at least 47 now. Breaking news: "OVER 50'S WANT OLD PASSPORT COLOUR BACK BECAUSE OLD" Hmmmm... ... "OVER 50'S WANT OLD BRITAIN BACK BECAUSE OLD" |

No. Read what I said originally. We don't know what this is being spent on, or even if this much is being spent at all. So save the outrage for when we're told they're spending Ł490 million on ink cartridges.

Blue reportedly symbolises "the new world" with 15 of the Caribbean countries opting for it.
Further south down the South American continent, Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay also use a blue passport – the cover symbolising the connection with the Mercosur trade union. The United States are said to be changing their passport colour again in the near future Venezuela, on the other hand, still uses a red passport, a throwback from its time in the Andean Community. The most famous blue passport in the world though has to be the one issued to US citizens – but this was changed to blue as recently in 1976.

As any Brit knows, when it comes to UK passports, deep red is the colour of choice.
It also happens to be the most common passport colour with all members of the European Union, apart from Croatia, sporting a burgundy hue. The Economist called this a "branding exercise" - though there's no word on whether we'll stay a nice shade of EU red once we've left it. It's not just EU states either. The Andean Community (also known for past EU-ambitions) of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru also has burgundy passports. Switzerland matches its passport colour to its bright, red flag.

Do you just post snippets from wikipedia or wherever without posting the source?
Kind of silly posting it otherwise. Looks like you're trying to make out you have this knowledge yourself. |

We wont be adopting the green because we are not an Arabic country and i doubt will will go for black as few countries have it. Blue is for the New World which we could interpretate into new Britian
