The BBC Can’t Help Themselves

From a BBC report about the UK rolling out blue passports, to replace the burgundy ones

According to the Passport Index, 81 countries have blue passports, including Australia, the United States, Canada, India and Hong Kong.

Several Caribbean countries also favour them, including Jamaica, Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados and St Vincent and the Grenadines.

In Europe, people from Iceland, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina carry blue passports, while it is a popular colour in central and south America – including in Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Uruguay and Venezuela.

Other nations to have blue passports include Israel, Iraq, Syria and North Korea.

I am sure that juxtaposition of Israel with some of the world’s worst human rights abusers is a complete coincidence, and not related to the BBC’s infamous anti-Israel bias.

And if you believe that, I have a blue passport to sell you.

Hat tip: Colin.
