Census 2021

[Johno please?]

Please don't do this.

"Jedi" gets lumped in with "has religion" and therefore drives policy that doesn't reflect the actual level of atheism in the UK

Exactly, gg you bloody nerds.

The heavies will be around soon, thanks for letting us know

Just filled it in but ignored the voluntary sexual and religious orientation questions.

 

[squerble]

Much to my wife's annoyance, I did

But now it's going to show more people as having some kind of religion why do people do this?

Having filled it I'm just as baffled why people have an issue!

People are stupid. See how many replies Jedi just in this thread for confirmation of that.

 

[Nasher]

They just ignored it last time afaik.

But now you can enter your own made up "gender". Expect lots of Attack Helicopters...

I don't have an issue just no interest. Don't like the implied threat of punishment in the letter. Last time some wetwipe came round asking why I hadn't filled it in and offering to help me do it. Told him I wasent going to do it and the punishment wasbt concerning me. Pretty sure he filled mine in himself in his car. Probably was working on commission

Did ours days ago, as someone with a bit of interest in history and ancestry it's lovely doing them as you get to tell future generations what was going on at a snapshot in time.

The nicest thing as well is the amount of family in the same village, it'll be nice for future generations to see we dominated a village

I bet you’re the first person to call the manager

 

[Berserker]

Haven't done mine yet but will certainly do it. Alongside birth, marriage and death records, the Census can be a goldmine for ancestry researchers, so for that reason alone it's worth doing.

How many have 6 toes?

Completed ours today. Also got one through the door of my uncle (who passed away recently) so just binned that one.

What a hero. We should all be like this guy! :/

You think census officers are paid commission? You think he filled one in for you? Don't be absurd. I work for the ONS/Census and I can tell you for a fact that does not happen.

 

[turbot1984]

Yes, all that collected data will be winging its way to HMRC as we (metaphorically) speak

I hope you make sure the cats are are paying council tax and did you put they have children as well?

I picked up the one at my mums house, she died earlier this year so I completed it as per this post.
