Reminder: Census Alert

Back in 2008 I joined the Census Alert Facebook group started by Sian Berry.
The idea was to try and stop American arms company Lockheed Martin running the UK census. Three years on and the census is now days away. Lockheed Martin secured the contract for £150m but the concerns about data security have not gone away. There is now a campaign of what can be best described as census disobedience - a local member highlighted this at our last party meeting. The priority is now to ensure Lockheed Martin do not profit from the census. Instructions can be found here.
