Ohh dear. Not another new rules again? Its never ending!

I have just checked my documents, my english test expires next year and my BRP expires 2015 so it is clear as water that I am going to take a bloody English TEST again! This is just getting ridiculous. Where is the bloody justice.

I wonder if taking ESOL will free me from both English Language requirement and Life in the UK test? Do you think thats possible?
