2011 Census

[Jimbob]

Will you be complying with it?

Just wondering...

Hmmmm, I may not!

Not filling it in ... a principled but ultimately futile gesture:

'Mr Maude, who has responsibility for the Census, told The Daily Telegraph that the Government was looking for a “fundamentally” better way of doing it.

“There are, I believe, ways of doing this which will provide better, quicker information, more frequently and cheaper,” he said.

Mr Maude said Britain needed a new way to keep track of the population because the Census was often inaccurate and out of date. About 1.5million households failed to fill in their forms in 2001.

...

Mr Maude said the Census was “out of date almost before it has been done” and was looking at ways to count the population more frequently — perhaps every five years — using databases held by credit checking firms, Royal Mail, councils and Government.

“This would give you more accurate, much more timely data in real time.

There is a load of data out there in loads of different places,” he said.'

I'm in two minds about it: do I completely ignore it or do I fill it in with completely pointless answers? Either way, it avoids their objective.

If I do complete it, I've already decided that I'll outsource the questions to Facebook and/ or Twitter, putting down the most original answers.

I'm a bit of a coward and I hate dealing with these goons so I guess I'll ignore it if the consequences are close to meaningless. Otherwise I'll fill it in with as many lies as I can muster.

Just going to be as difficult as possible and put down things that I find amusing
