Britain's census flap sparks debate across nations
The piece reviews objections to national censuses, citing three main lines of attack: fear of government data use, constitutional and legal challenges, and religious grounds. It recalls English and Northern Irish reactions, notes U S concerns over questions and data use in 1970, and mentions biblical references to census numbering as context for protest. Protests are portrayed as serious, not mere venting, with cross continental resonance.
