@tael as someone who just passed the UK citizenship test, it's KeepArse, thank you very much!
Eggs now in different baskets.@whitequark @tael Congratulations?
I passed the Norwegian one plus the required language tests a few years back.
It was cheaper to apply for Norwegian nationality than it would have been to renounce my British nationality.
Fortunately, just in time the Norwegian government passed a law allowing Norwegian citizens to have more than one nationality.
This saved me the several hundred pounds it would have cost me to renounce my British nationality.
@whitequark @tael Worth remembering the detail that if you have a British passport and other passports issued by other countries the British Passport Authorities insist that the names on all the passports are identical.
There are a couple of exceptions to this rule.
Also worth remembering that UK citizens now have to use their UK passport to enter the UK. (Canada has had a similar rule for the last decade)
So I have to keep my UK passport up to date if I want to travel to the UK.
Colin Watson@the_wub @whitequark @tael I have found that they can at least sometimes be persuaded if the argument is along the lines of "we intend to get the other one changed but there's an elapsed-time condition that hasn't been met yet".
@cjwatson @whitequark @tael The solution in the case that I dealt with was that the name on the non-UK passport contained an accented character.
As UK passports, AFAIK do not use accented characters my argument that the names never could be the same seemed to have been accepted.
