Findmypast have transcribed records up till 1903. After that date the records are held by the National Archives at Kew. They only seem to hold a list of passport holders and a small sample of passport correspondence. In any case it was not mandatory to hold a passport until 1914.

Findmypast also have passenger lists for people leaving the UK up till 1960, so that might be useful if you haven't looked at it yet.
