Time to renew my British passport

..... it doesn't expire for many months, but always like to be ahead of the game.

Surprisingly, it shows how long it's been (as if the photo weren't enough) but the passports issued now come complete with biological information :shock: I thought it was most interesting..

How do facial biometrics work?

Facial recognition maps various features on the face - for example, the distances between eyes, nose, mouth and ears.

The measurements are digitally coded and this can then be used for comparison and verification purposes.

Biometric technology is perfectly safe as facial biometrics can be taken from a good quality passport photograph.

All a good thing I believe, heavens I'll have every body part mapped, printed and evidently 'biometrically mapped' all in the name of immigration :wink:

In lands beyond the sea:
Nor England! Did I know till then
What love I bore to thee."
