a moment of great post-Brexit pride, the UK government has unveiled the country’s new, non-EU passport. It will be dark blue, as it was before 1988, when it was changed to burgundy to align with the rest of the (then) European Economic Community (now European Union) design.

The document, said home secretary Priti Patel, is “once again be entwined with our national identity.” Going back to blue, the UK joins a majority of countries (81) with a blue passport.

The design unveiled yesterday recalls the one the British empire introduced in 1921: It reads “British Passport” on the top, has the country’s coat of arms at the center, and underneath spells “United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.”

At the time of the Empire, a similar passport noted “British Passport” above the coat of arms, then listed the territory the passport was issued in: for instance India, Kenya, or indeed the UK.
