I dont think ive ever done a census questionairre...at least I cant remember doing on. But anyway, in response to Ricks comments, id say those types of questions are irrelevent, invasive and personal.

Thats what i was told and is quite probably correct

However i replied that we were known collectively as Welsh, Scottish and English with British being considered more an overarching description as in British isles (Irish wasnt even on the form!!!)

They couldnt counter that one which is why the boss tol d me to f off and the shift fill in the closest

with the new way the world is so freely viewing what is going on around the world (live) demonstrations and the falling of dictators around the world . the way wars a fought.

the world is all falling for what we all hope or lead to believe is a democratic world ....

trouble is what freedom do WE in the democratic societies actually have . ok we dont stone to death adulterous wives, or cut of limbs from thieves, or publicly execute other criminals ... but those are the laws of the land that have been around for a long period of time , people know the risk before crimes are committed and are bought up knowing the laws of the land they inhabit .

in our free country/society there is still a consequence/punishment for not towing the line .

i wonder if . we are not all being sold the dream of a free society when really we are actually getting a new world order

if you think about it a new world order is one person as a president of the world and something close to the nazi party/army to keep the peoples in line without the ethnic cleansing

they are already wanting in place

i.d cards.

no passports

grass on your neighbour . and yes you can do that online with all the big ones



i honestly wonder what freedoms we actually get in this free society.
but i struggle to find any other option .


if you look at hitlers reign of terror, it was a bloody well organised and efficient machine. if you look past the tanks and guns .
the bit i never understood so researched a lot. was the cleansing of the german race, where they put to death or experimented on there own people (even worse when you think ordered by an austrian bloke with black hair).

we as free society are repulsed by the nazi's crimes or dictators ethnic cleansing and experimenting on the sick. but how many of our new medical techniques are a direct result of the sick stuff the nazi doctors did , often to there own people

so getting back on topic, ill just do my census . its a nothing in the light of things

I find many of the questions we are asked in everyday life offencive and unnecessary, for example, at the dentist I am asked my ethic group every time I go and the choices on the form are silly and inadequate.

and as you say sexuality is private, and subjective. I have a friend, a woman who prefers the company of women, (who is also a Dr of sociology) who came up with an interesting way to look at sexuality - there is no such thin as a homosexual or heterosexual person, there are simply sexual experiences, people should not be labelled by their choices. I agree with this - each person and relationship is unique.

off my soap box

I think the question about sexuality will be optional as are the ethnicity questions.

When I did the last census I just made up loads of answers as they can hardly check up on you as its confidential !

It might be compulsory to return the form but the manner of the response is down to you so how can they validate the replies ?

If I say I am a Naxolite or a Zorastrian how are they going to check this is my political or religious belief ?

the last council questionaire about gauging there clientel got filled in as agy and lesbian muslim,gypsy i didnt want any of there favorite groups to feel left out!
im not on voters reg either, you could of course fill forms in as michael rodent or scot f'alltodowithu
i think jedi is now a recognised religion unsure about cling ons id have to check!

[Thomas-the-Terrano2]

err clingons are race, cling ons well something else

whats agy, her off how clean is shite hole?

[(RIP) PLANK]

makes you wonder - if they are optional, what is the point?
