Immigration is currently a standout issue in public debate, with Keir Starmer even suggesting we risk becoming an "island of strangers". Starmer's remark has been termed
offensive by some, while others have possibly found themselves agreeing with it. The Labour Party now seems to be committing itself to stringent immigration rules, raising the entry criteria
for those seeking to live and work on British soil. A key step in these criteria includes taking the 'Life in the UK' test, which is part of the process to gain British
citizenship. But it might not be as easy to pass as you think. We've pulled together 23 questions from the British citizenship test for you to try out for yourself in the interactive
quiz below. To sit the official British citizenship test, applicants must have resided in the UK for a specified duration, possess a clean criminal record, and clear an English language
examination. This test covers various topics such as culture, history, and traditions, giving participants 45 minutes to complete it. Some questions might seem simple, but others demand good
preparation and research. You're allowed multiple attempts at passing the test, although each try comes with a £50 cost. The pass rate typically sits around 80 percent, reports
Manchester Evening News. Achieving a pass involves answering 18 out of the 24 questions correctly, equalling a 75 percent success rate, with results promptly available after completion of
the test. _GET ALL THE LATEST AND BREAKING NEWS IN YORKSHIRE BY __SIGNING UP TO OUR NEWSLETTER HERE._ GET BREAKING NEWS IN YORKSHIRE STRAIGHT TO YOUR PHONE Get all the latest big and
