UK Passport Holders Face E-Gate Airport Delays
UK passport holders may face long airport queues this summer, As EU e-gates remain off-limits, until a new scheme's in season.
In the UK, a problem did arise,
Long queues at airports, a holiday surprise,
British travellers waiting, oh what a test,
For their passports to be checked, what a mess.

The EU Commission said with a frown,
No e-gates for UK citizens, until a new scheme's found,
A new security scheme, to keep borders tight,
Won't be in place till October, a long wait in sight.

Cabinet Office minister, Pat McFadden did say,
Nothing will happen before the new scheme's in play,
The European Entry/Exit Scheme, a new way to roam,
Gathers biometric data, to keep borders home.

The scheme was delayed, but now it's on its way,
In October 2025, it will be here to stay,
But until then, long queues will be the test,
For British travellers, who just want to rest.

The UK and EU made a deal, a new agreement too,
No legal barriers, for e-gates to use, it's true,
The prime minister's spokesperson, said they'll work with glee,
To roll out the e-gates, as quickly as can be.

Talks have started, with EU nations so fine,
To let British passengers, use the e-gates in line,
Some EU countries already, allow UK citizens to pass,
But until the new scheme's in place, it's a long, long pass.

The e-gates will speed up, the border process so fast,
No more long queues, for British travellers at last,
A new deal, a new scheme, a new way to roam,
For UK passport holders, in the EU, a new home.
