I've done mine 
They ask what you consider your national identity to be and you can tick more than one, so I ticked, "English" and "British". This means that there's no arguing about "Nationality" in this instance!

Just put stupid answers, last week I went to the petrol station 6 times as petrol is very expensive and I need to fill up more because I drive the long way to work as there's less pot holes to **** up my suspension, on the 27th of march 16 people stayed in my house as we had our monthly wife swapping party, silly questions= silly answers! (await to be flamed by do gooders with no sense of humour)

The government has always carried out the census but for the first time they have got a private company involved this time:
Interestingly they have chosen to give Lockheed Martin £150 million for the job. In case you don't know they are one of the biggest arms companys in the world. Why would they give the job of collecting information on people to a company in the business of killing people.

If they had something like 100,000 people be 'JEDI' 10yrs ago (including me
) when the internet was in its infancy.... just think how many could 'warp' the results nowadays, it would only need a comedy facebook group, or something to go viral and its all over....
Can't wait....lol
In fact thats got me thinking.....hmmmmmm

The question that annoyed me last time was that when you were asked your nationality you were not allowed to say you were English, it had to be British. I don't know if that applied to Welsh or Scottish people as well, Someone will know.

Les, it includes all options now (though no doubt the Cornish will complain 'cause they aren't seperately listed :-) ) and you can tick multiple. So if you think you are all - British, Welsh, English, Scottish and Norn Irish, you can be!
