Can you pass a citizenship test?

The government has published Life in the United Kingdom,a 150-page book for prospective British citizens.

If you want the passport you'll have to read the book and then answer 24 questions drawn from its contents.

Lets see how ya do...I got 6 right :)

Life in the UK explains what to do if you spill someone's pint in the pub (we're not making this up). What, according to the book, usually happens next?

most likely fight if you dont immediately offer to buy another
