Passport Office: Well, a background check shows that you have relatives in Germany and some of your family members have been linked to “undesirable” neo fascist parties in the past. A further check reveals that you spend a huge amount of your time out of the country in foreign lands, we even have evidence that you are a Muslin sympathiser (or at least Muslin tolerant); we have several pictures of you shaking hands with Arab people; walking in a Mosque (with head scarf and no shoes) and generally being friendly to none British people- all very suspicious. And despite a letter of reference from your Danish-Greek husband saying that he has known you for many years, we are sorry your Majesty, but your request for a new Passport is denied. Your biometric data will now be passed over to the Police to see if it matches any unsolved crimes.
