Rejected petition Sofia Wants Her Vote!!

More details

Pls support my application that the government should give the right to vote to anyone who is a permanent resident of the UK and pays any amount of taxes.

Came from Greece 10y ago 2, live in the UK as permanent resident, highly political & been paying significant taxes all these years. Dnt want a sham-marriage 2 get my vote.

90% of British-born and bred citizens failed the CItizenship test (see CH4)

I believe the test is on purpose discriminating against non-British citizens (eg Q: "Ulster Scots is a dialect which is spoken in Northern Ireland"

Now ask yourselves do I need 2 know about Ulster Scots (spk by less 0.2%) b4 I can choose a political party? IS THIS FAIR?

These amongst MANY other errors in t'test make it a de-facto discriminatory tool to prevent me from my simple demand for my hardly-earned vote.
