A 100-STRONG army of census enforcers has been given police powers to gather criminal evidence against householders who fail to complete tomorrow’s national survey. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/8408003/Census-2011-an-army-of-enforcers.html

i dont know why the gov bothers, why dont they just go and ask credit reference agencies and your local council btw them they know everything :D

You're so right joebloggs, I believe this Census is expected to cost 0.5 billion GBP :yikes:
Surely a carefully taken sample of the population would be just as effective for a fraction of the cost ?
