You've mentioned all these countries that do Citizenship-Test but not once you've said that its in their Minister's discretion to grant or refuse citizenship, nor have you mentioned about them being refused for traffic offenses etc..
Read my last post properly and you'll fully understood what I meant.
Citizenship-Test is good!, but not with the burden that the Irish citizenship applicants currently face!. It is crucial that they scrap some requirements in-order to bring in this so called Citizenship-Test. And I know for a fact that the Irish government do not want that because they want who citizenship is given to, to be determined by the absolute power of the Minister and never an entitlement. The way it currently stands, it is so easy to become Citizen of another country that of Ireland because of the Ministers power logically!. I've made my point and am done with this argument.
I oppose stereotype, prejudice, xenophobe, judgmental, Ignorance, and beloved.
