Red light districts
Tomorrow the EU is introducing its famous traffic lights travel map.
The general idea is categorise countries into safe to visit, dodgy or keep the fuck away.
However, in rather typical EU fashion their traffic lights are not the same as the ones I’m used to. I expected a red, amber, green combination but instead we have red, amber, green, blue, pale blue, grey and various other shades of red/orange and different shades of green. Even more confusing is the apparent choice of traffic lights you wish to obey. I shudder to think what driving through Brussels must be like if that’s what they have to contend with at every junction. It must be a fucking nightmare.
Anyways there is one aspect which is in fact very realistic: just about anywhere I might want to go to, the lights are red. The story of my life?
The only spot that seems to be safe is Greenland.
Or Switzerland, because that doesn’t exist.
Dear Grandad
That's a clear as mud. I note that the UK is included. Hasn't anyone told them we've left?
They have thoughtfully provided a 'colour-blind friendly' version, but no LGBGHeeBGB+++* version – why not?

* I think there should be a Q in there somewhere.
Is there a wheelchair friendly version? With ramps?
Well, speaking of red light districts, all the doggers have disappeared from this area… so I'm told…
I couldn't possibly comment…
A Dublin taxi driver would interpret every colour as carry on as usual.
And the "shortest route" would involve Greenland?
