Ask a stupid question...

I've just been doing my "Civic Duty" by filling in the 2011 Census form.

Is it just me, or is Question 19 a bit poorly thought out?


If the answer is "Not at all", how likely is it that I can read and understand the question?

  1. Yes, we have had a giggle at that one too! The only reason I fill in the census at all is that I do so enjoy reading the census's of 100+ years ago to find out more about my ancestors and i can hardly wait until next week when the Scottish 1911 census will be online... perhaps someone in a hundred years time will be looking up my entry. That would be cool!

  2. I wonder if the number of people who gave their religion as "Jedi", on the last census in 2001, will be a surprise to people in a hundred years time.

  3. My 15yo wants to know, "If the answer is 'not at all', how did the answerer make it to question 19?"
