New UK passport design

I wouldn't be in a rush. He's conveniently omitted the fact that that particular image represents "Festival Culture" based around the Edinburgh Festival and the rest of the pages have the following subject matter. The overall theme is "Creative United Kingdom".

John Harrison
John Constable
The Penny Black
Steam Transportation
Sir Giles Gilbert Scott The London Underground Elisabeth Scott
Antony Gormley
Anish Kapoor
Shakespeare’s Globe
Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace Brilliant Buildings

I'd put them in directly but there are 9 of them and finding versions that don't block direct linking is more hassle than I'm prepared to go to.

Ah, thank you. A bit of context is always good - hadn't twigged it was just one page. In that case, I like it

In what way? The Americans don't pander to multi-cultural bollux and none of them get offended by their own flag or military. So if what Google shows me is their passport (patriotic bald eagle, flag and words from the constitution) what's wrong with it?

P.S. Well done to the OP for mis-representing the new British passport, by showing the page which has the Indian lady on it, not the other pages which are much less multi-cultural. Troll by name, troll by nature.

How is it misrepresenting the passport when he showed an image that is actually in the passport?

Not enough women in it allegedly

Because he deliberately posted the only image that contained anything "Foreign", and then linked it with a complaint about an apparent lack of Britishness i.e. no Morris dancers. Implying in the post that political correctness / Multiculturalism has forced out a "British" image in favour of an Asian one and that this was the only image used.

I suspect eh moonlights for the Daily Mail or possibly the Express.

I don't like the jigsaw puzzle pieces.

Too right, it needs that great British tradition -- Page 3

Isn't that image celebrating all the nations we've crushed in the past?

Why do you think it is in there? It was the "making" of this country, we no longer have anything else left to boast about....

I don't spend enough time staring at my passport to give a tulip, as long as it gets me out of, and into, the country I'm happy.
