Letters

 Words aren’t as important as you think but letters are everything. Don’t get them wrong or you could be breaking the law.

We are no longer EU. Phew! It’s what we voted for. We no longer have to learn Ode to Joy (unless you are in year 6 and then it’s the compulsory transition piece for going to senior school). All those pesky yellow stars on a blue background are gone. Don’t put E and U on your car.

We’ve got our blue passports back. And here I will have one more rant because I’m old enough to remember. THEY WERE BLACK (a bluish black but still black and not the colour they are now.)

It also means we are now not allowed to but GB on our cars.

‘What?’ you say, ‘But we voted to put the Great back into Britain.’

It seems as though our official letters are UK. 

Risky, I know. Probably not wise to adopt the name United for a country that very much isn’t. I suppose when Scotland leaves we can still be UK and just think ununited kingdom. I know the correct opposite is divided but then we’d have to be DK, which is the abbreviation for Don’t Know.

Maybe we should just use the letters of the countries involved. England Ireland Scotland and Wales. If we put it in the right order we could be WISE and if Scotland left we could be WIE, which counts like why.

What about the Chanel islands? Do they count? SCEWI. 

Maybe we could add Royal Isle of Man as it’s own country and be

Scotland, Chanel Islands, Royal Isle of Man, England, Wales and Ireland Divided.

Whatever, just don’t buy this car sticker from Amazon because even with the patriotic colours it’s still illegal and then you really will be screwed.
