The government announced that it is introducing the British and British Culture exam for people who want to become British citizens. Here are some reactions:

I once read that rock star Malcolm McLaren described himself as British as “singing karaoke in bars, eating Chinese noodles, wearing Prada and Nike, vacationing in Florida and Ibiza ...” Why would we check this?

Jared Steele, owner of a London nightclub)

People say they come from Yorkshire, Lancaster or London and not the UK as a whole. There is some annoyance in trying to define the British. If anyone asked, I would say that I am a Londoner and a European. (Claire Rayner, writer)

I think that "British" died in my life, and nothing has replaced it. Winston Churchill and the beekeepers were English when I was a child. Now this is an inappropriate concept. (Jon Snow, TV personality)

Why do you need a test? Most people I know will fall. Why don't we welcome immigrants with open arms? (Penny Porter, Anglican priest)

My family is very proud to be British. We came here from Uganda in the 1970s. There was no test in those days, but I think it's a good idea. People always ask: what is this country doing for me? But the best question is, what can I do for my country? (Amina Patel, saleswoman)

When I think of Britain, I think of royalty, cricket, warm beer, cheese and cucumber sandwiches, and wet weather. Who cares about these things? Why is the government wasting our time and money on this? They should spend money on better schools and decent hospitals. (Clive Morgan, rugby player)

What's the problem with the citizenship test? Why all the fuss? In other countries such as Germany, USA and Australia, you need to take a test. It shouldn't be otherwise in the UK. (Dieter Krugger, Investment Analyst)

People forget that Britain was great. There was a time when we were proud to wear the Union Jack. What happened to all this good old fashioned patriotism? It has become a curse now, but true British qualities are still important. Of course, we have to test them. (S Sullivan, MBE).
