“You have failed the practice citizenship test”

Apparently I answered 10 our of 24 questions correctly (that’s 42% for those of you lacking a maths gcse or the equivalent qualification). That’s almost half the questions. WOW! Honestly, I did not expect to know nearly that much. I think my BA in Politics has finally paid off. Totally worth 3 years at university (4 if you count my second gap year taken after my first year of study). AM I PROUD OF MYSELF OR WHAT?

It took me 4 minutes and 13 seconds to finish. During which time I discovered many things that I did not know I did not know. I did not know in which year married women got the right to divorce their husbands. Nor was I sure whether it was true or false that in the 1980s, the largest immigrant groups were from the West Indies, Ireland, India and Pakistan.

And I still don’t.

Think you can do better? Make your parents proud.
