Well, apparently it's compulsory to vote once (and thereon after) one becomes a citizen. All depends on who I vote for.

Compulsory to fill in a voting paper....there is a difference! You can just as easily write "I do not agree with compulsory voting" across the ballot paper......!

Indeed, good point. Not against voting per se'. Just don't follow politics enough to be able to decide.

If the price of beer and wine were to be slashed by half, well then, yeah. I'm so shallow.

Good luck and congratulations to everyone becoming citizens today.

Just make sure your first act as a citizen isn't to get trapped in the lift, like we did. If it wasn't for our plants, we would have all suffocated
