Are You British Enough To Live In UK?
http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0...455672,00.html
Questions include...
:: Which of these courts uses a jury system: magistrates' court, crown court, youth court or county court?
:: What voltage is the UK electricity supply: 750 volts, 60 volts, 110 volts or 240 volts?
:: Put the UK saints' days in calendar order.
:: In what year was the right to vote granted to all 18-year-olds?
Having read this article and also associated links, I have to say Britain has gone crazy !!!
I'm not british but I have been educated at a British University and have worked for the British Ministry of Defence for 3 years but I wouldnt be able to answer half these questions. Now if I'm good enough to work on the British Nuclear Reactor Program and the UK Navy Trident nuclear submarine project surely I'm good enough to be british even if I have no idea about saints days, court systems and voting dates.
