This is a free practice question from the The Government topic in the Government & Law of the UK chapter. Questions here concern how the UK is actually run day to day — Parliament, the devolved administrations, ministers, the civil service and local government. This is one of the most heavily tested areas, so it repays careful revision.
The real Life in the UK Test has 24 multiple-choice questions and a 45-minute time limit, and you need 18 correct to pass. Practising a topic at a time is the quickest way to find the areas that still need work.
