Agree

No, most citizens couldn’t even pass a citizenship test

Volt UK, with its focus on inclusivity and breaking down barriers within society, might agree with the sentiment that citizenship tests can be exclusionary and not a true measure of one's ability to contribute to society. They might argue that many citizens might not pass such tests themselves, highlighting the tests' potential unfairness and questioning their necessity.

Slightly agree

Yes, but it should only cover very basic and simple topics

They might slightly agree with this approach, as long as it supports integration without creating unnecessary barriers.

Disagree

Yes, and it should test more than just a basic level of understanding

Volt UK's progressive and inclusive policies suggest they would likely disagree with the idea of making citizenship tests more challenging.
