My housemate recently took (and passed) his citizenship test so I've read the book they give you while I was testing him.
Curiously, the book says we have general elections every 5 years (!) and the prime minister lives at no. 10 Downing Street (I know, traditionally he does, but not at the time of the test he didn't).
There were several other typos and inaccuracies in that book - told him to remember the mistakes and answer according to the book.
Makes for interesting reading. I didn't know half that stuff myself - the rest is just common sense.Comment

Any good bits on claiming benefit? I understand it's mandatory nowadays, so I'd better get the hang of it. When in Rome, and all that.Last edited by Sysman; 13 July 2007, 10:05.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment

Seeking advise...
Hi! What about those paid "test packages" that are said to help you for the test. Are they any good? i mean, most of them are advertised to work, though they are priced (this one for instance). I Checked out others that are for free, but can anyone give advise or at least assure that they are worth it? do they actually help?
Thanks a lot.Comment

A Google search of "UK Citizen Test" doesn't bring this page up (well, not in the first 5 pages at least).
I can only presume you found it while rummaging around your belly button for fluff.Comment
