I seem to remember that the passport office has this problem every summer too...

A friend just got new passports for his kids, the standard service took about 7 days. They weren't British passports though....

Nah, it started under Labour:



So if your child was basically born around that time then they're now reaching 16 and so need to get their own passport. This was a change bought in by the Labour government to make money from passports (oh, I believe parts of it were also semi-privatised.) This might also explain why all his kids have Irish passports

The last of these passports would have expired in 2008.
