Re: uk citizenship test
I only got 50% 12 out of 24. What the heck have half the questions asked got to do with Citizenship, i.e. What year were women first allowed to divorce their husbands?

Re: uk citizenship test
You have failed the practice citizenship test.
Questions answered correctly: 14 out of 24 (58%)
Time to claim political asylum, I think.
I wonder which publicly funded onanist sat in Whitehall, deciding on those pathetic questions?

Re: uk citizenship test
Should be asking questions like why don't Lancastrians like Yorkshire men, what year did a Brit last win a singles title at Wimbledon, what was the name of the dog who found the world cup, and how long was Queen Victoria on the throne.
Proper questions, about Britain.
You would more than likely want to avoid the sad sap who passed this test.
You certainly wouldn't want them on your quiz team, down the boozer.

Mr Grey.
Grey suit.
Grey skin.
Tucks his vest into his grey pants.
Index linked pension. Sadly more gold plated than grey.
Catches the 17.57 train from Liverpool St. to Grays, Essex.
Sat with his dinner on a tray, back at Grey Gables, by 19.24.
Sound asleep by 23.30 on the dot, after watching an episode of Grey's Anatomy.
Colourful character.

Re: uk citizenship test
What a load of Cobblers, just as well I'm living abroad.
Being British isn't about answering some questions, it's a state of mind, attitude & mentality. (Oh & being born here helps too )

Re: uk citizenship test
I just got 67%.
Absolute garbage.
If this country had immigration controls, there would be no need for this bureaucratic rubbish and jobs for the boys.

Re: uk citizenship test
Not one question about how to form an orderly queue.
How to chat nicely about the weather.
Decide who's worse, bankers or politicans?
Discuss why the country's gone to the dogs.
Who was the greatest cricketer of all time?
No questions at all, about what it really means to be British.
