Immigration is a controversial subject that is regularly debated. Prime Minister Keir Starmer recently said that we face becoming an “island of strangers”.

It is a comment that many found wrong, but others may have agreed with.

And now there are promises from the Labour government to tighten up immigration rules and make it more difficult to live and work in the United Kingdom.

One requirement of that process has been taking the ‘Life in the UK’ test, which can put you on the pathway to becoming a British citizen, reports Manchester Evening News.

To take the test, you have to have been living in the UK for a certain period of time, not have any criminal convictions, and pass an English language test.

The test consists of questions on a mixture of subjects, including culture, history, and customs, and you get 45 minutes to take it.

While some questions are pretty straightforward, others would require a bit of background knowledge and research.

You can take the test as many times as it takes to pass, but each attempt costs £50.

Generally the pass rate has hovered around the 80% mark.

To pass, you must correctly answer 18 questions, or 75%, and the results are given immediately at the end of the test.
