...a solution for UK citizens post brexit...
A solution for what?Some do.
Its interesting to see how as well as not seeing the point themselves, many are very eager to deny that right to others.
Still, I could always use my NZ passport instead of my British one if things go Pete Tong, right?
Unfettered travel in our world of nation states and borders is a privilege, not a right.

If you vote for brexit, expect brexit. No special exceptions for anyone.
I guess this is why may had called a general election. She knows we're screwed because of it and she's trying to get out of it.
I'm happy, I have Irish and British passport. You're all screwed
As far as working abroad are concerned, the only ones 'screwed' are those that have nothing to offer the other country they wish to work in.I guess this is why may had called a general election. She knows we're screwed because of it and she's trying to get out of it.
I'm happy, I have Irish and British passport. You're all screwed
Which doesn't seem that unreasonable.

Isn't the Irish economy linked quite closely to the British one? One cut and we all bleed and all that pish?I guess this is why may had called a general election. She knows we're screwed because of it and she's trying to get out of it.

You're happy, but you also claim that your biggest trading partner is screwed, lol.

They also get to use the UK road infrastructure to peddle their goods to the rest of the EU and will have to cross our borders both out of then back into the EU.
Without a UK that is on side, the Irish economy is sunk, if we end up with a poor deal and decide to slash corporation tax to below Irish levels, god help them. If the EU impose hard borders at Calais, their export costs just went up.
A bad deal for the UK is a disastrous deal for Ireland and they know it.

Not only that, the UK bailed Ireland out of the st when their economy went under.

Just as is the case now, where predominantly white Europeans have rights denied to predominantly non-white people from non-EU nations.
Where is your revolt against the racist policies of the EU?

Those are not passports. They are laissez-passer, which are travel documents.
Which if you could read and comprehend you would see referenced in the opening post of this threadHTH
The link actually uses both terms including "EU passport".
What exactly are you arguing about? That is it impossible or you don't like the idea?
Guy V has talked about this, so it appears to be feasible in one form or another - and he specifically had people potentially affected by brexit in mind.
Some at the time got angry with Guy V for proposing it some months back - is everyone now relaxed about it?

A passport does more than just allowing you to pass through borders. It provides the holder the protection of the issuing state if required, that includes both political, legal and military arms of the issuing state as and when required.
If the EU wishes to use a laissez-passer for none EU members, I don't have a problem, that's their prerogative. It's not the same as issuing a passport though.
If the EU becomes a federal state, then you can talk about them issuing a passport.

So we've done the starters. What's the main course?
