Britons to sail the seven seas again with navy passport
UK Passport expected to switch back to more traditional design and colour as Home Office puts out a contract

Then-Ukip leader Nigel Farage was often seen with his passport during the EU referendum
The blue British passport, which was superseded by the burgundy-coloured European Union passport as the UK forged closer links with Europe three decades ago, is to make a return as part of a post-Brexit redesign.
The fondly remembered navy-blue passport began to be phased out in 1988 as the then European Community decided to harmonise documentation across its member states.
Many Britons disliked the slightly smaller burgundy passports, on the cover of which the words European Community appeared above United Kingdom.
The Home Office has put a contract out to tender for the “design, production and personalisation of the UK passport” for 2019, when Britain is due to have left the EU.
Today the Sunday Express reports that discussions have already taken place with potential contractors to produce the new passport.
I really like the passport design our New Zealander cousins have.

Traditional with the navy/black colour and coat of arms, but with the ferns. Britain could maybe do a similar design with the English Rose, Scottish Thistle, Welsh Leek and Nothern Irish Shamrock alongside the coat of arms.
Thoughts?
