Oh no! My score is only one short!

Just think how close I came to not having to emigrate. Phew!

 

I got 11/24. Looks like I’ll be joining you.

It’s a pointless test, though.

What is the point of the question about ‘Ulster Scots is a dialect of…’? Who cares?

And who cares if they know WHEN women won the right to divorce their husbands, as long as they know they DO have the right, no matter what their ‘community elder’ tells them?

…..And what they should be asking is whether they know how difficult it is to find work here and why jobs are becoming so precious. ;-)

 

15/24. Has anyone in the ‘sphere passed this sodding thing?

 

Proof, if ever it was needed, that us bloggers are traitorous, country-hating anarchists!

Nah, actually I reckon the stupid test is there to put the public off the idea of a citizenship test. They can now say ‘but we tried making a test and you all thought it was rubbish!’
