    Your result:
    SORRY - you're not welcome!

    We have determined you are worthless to British society and of no interest to us whatsoever - have you considered Bongo Bongo Land?

    Dunno. Link don't seem to be working for me. Must have ruled me out already.

    What about the absurd citizenship test? Questions about football clubs, British Oscar winners, who built some obscure castle etc.

    Questions about our more important laws and core principles like democracy, freedom of choice, equality etc might be more relevant. So we didn't get people who do FGM, forced marriage, illegal poaching etc.

      I got 90 - what's annoying is that I don't know what answer I got wrong - probably the Jam / Cream one..

        Forget the life in the UK test, it well known to be rubbish. The bigger problem is the level of English that is required. Even on some of the promotional videos the candidates can barely speak English but still pass the bar. Imagine what is happening behind closed doors.

        Considering that most routes require 3-6 years of residence in the UK, it's mind boggling how people didn't bother learning the language.

          You're an absolute disgrace, like most Brits. Immigrants do not do those things, it's a racist smear propagated by the extreme right-wing press like the Wail.

          You probably voted for Brexit and Boris, which just proves my point.

          Or something. Go directly to jail, do not collect £200 benefits money.

                If only they gave out points for having a sparkling personality...you'd have 63.5

                  I got 57. Does that mean I get a free flight to Jamaica?
