That's the point, the questions are ambiguous so they can always say you passed or failed depending on whether you passed the actual test (the one involving a paper bag)

That last question they put on the first page is really misleading because they ask "more than 20 but less than 30" and drop the number 20 in there as a trick. I'm pretty sure whether marking the 20 being wrong or right would be the administrator's prerogative.

By the way, Boris gave a speech. A real interesting speech about "let's not be hasty with this" and "UK will also be Europe". You'd think he voted Remain or Stronger In by the tone and content of the speech.

Or will they double down saying it got better as they eat their canned beans on toast huddled around a trashbin fire.

They don't have to compare it to how things were before Brexit, but to how terrible things might have been if they hadn't gotten out when they did. If they hadn't gotten out when they did, they'd only have half a can of beans, because the darkies and polish would have taken the rest. And they wouldn't get the trashbin fire at all, because the trashbin fires would have been outlawed by the EU. Imagine that, half a can of cold beans in the dark, we're lucky we avoided that.

I'm tut-tuting you right now. Marking 20 would be unambiguously wrong since 20 is not more than 20. :colbert:

the test is literally designed to cause poor people to fail, because a disproportionate number of minorities are poor

the real test is whether or not a person knows that the test is garbage
Passing the real test didn't allow you to vote, though.

I hope it turns out like the ending of that Simon Pegg film The Worlds Ends but instead of an alien it's a bunch of old people with guns like the ending of that Simon Pegg film Hot Fuzz who are so doped up on their anti-depressant meds they resemble the zombies in that Simon Pegg film Shaun of the Dead.

I'm not an expert, but as far as I know, such tests were perfectly legal and their design was up to the local jurisdiction prior to the civil rights act.

Interestingly, though, that particular test has been taken down from the place that once hosted it, with a note that "We removed it from this website because it was quite atypical and was probably little used."

There's another one here (from the same site) which is not quite as absurd.

even when they're right leftists are usually too busy smugly jerking themselves off and calling everyone else stupid for not agreeing with them to actually convince people that they are right
