UK Citizenship Test Updated

October 13, 2011 at 6:56 pm

So after much ridicule of the daft, plain stupid and politically “correct” questions in the old Labour government’s so-called Citizenship Test….it has been re-written by the Coalition. Can we expect questions like “how much does the UK waste each year by belonging to the EU” or “name the religion responsible […]

The Foreign Office is currently £110 million over budget and engaged in an operation to close Embassies, insult the Pope and generally withdraw from the diplomatic arena in the face of Baroness Ashtray and her army of EU diplo-cyborgs.

In an unbelievable outbreak of libertarianism and sense from a portion of our EU enemies we learn that French MP’s have today voted against a law which would have allowed law enforcement agencies to cut off the internet connections of file-sharers.
