UK Citizenship Test
The ‘bad pub quiz’
Anyone applying must correctly answer 18 or more of 24 multiple choice questions to pass...the test for British citizenship that few Brits could pass. One candidate failed 64 times before finally passing the test...How many of us know the height of the London Eye, the age of Big Ben’s clock tower, or that Sake Dean Mahomed introduced curry to the UK in opening the Hindoostane Coffee House on George Street, London?

Well, they do want to reduce the number of immigrants...making citizenship more than simply turning up for the test may be part of the cunning plan....😎

Re: UK Citizenship Test
I just did one and got 19 out of 24 which is pretty much what I get on the Canadian ones.
I liked the option of House of Fraser for the make up of parliament.
