    If GB leaves EU will I need a new passport right away

    Going to Europe in Sept 16, current GB passport clearly says "European Union" at top, will this passport need to be replaced before travelling if there is a BREXIT ?

    Can't find any mention of this possibility anywhere.
    If you find this post offensive, please insert "Chan" before and "tho" after, then it should be OK.

    If there is a Brexit, it will not take place immediately after the referendum. The treaty allows 2 years although even that might be optimistic.

      You are correct. There is no process in place therefore all European Travel will be suspended until someone remembers this minor point.....

        IF you vote Brexit:

        All flights, trains and boats will be impounded and burned. As foreigners pretty much own all our water, energy and communications, these will all be turned off. All shops will close and food supplies stopped.

        IF you vote Brexin:

        A stronger EU will mean cheaper goods, more jobs, and due to EU climate change directives, better weather. You will look younger and have better and more frequent sex.

        I'm currently weighing up the pros and cons of the above before deciding.

          Yes it will, you need to tippex it out and write 'British Empire' on top. That way you won't need a visa as its technically an invasion....

              Yes, and for every British passport-holder who crosses the channel, a Boomer retiree will be forcibly returned from the Costa del Sol.

                    In Scotland, which of course might not leave the EU after BREXIT
