American Defense Dept in the running to run the 2011 census

I don't normally give the Green Party much housespace however I was incensed to hear that Lockhead-Martin will be bidding to run the census. As a US Defense Contractor they are bound under the US Patriot Act to disclose all the info they gain from the 2011 Census to the US Dept for Homeland Security and the CIA...............................
There is a petition on the Downing Street website here http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/census-alert/ if you feel that you don't want your info disclosed to the US Authorities

You can read more about it here http://censusalert.org.uk/ and click on the 2011 Census link 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced

Apparrently Lockhead Martin are one of the biggest companies involved with supplying national censuses worldwide..... how useful for the Dept of Homeland Security, they don't have to do any work to get people's personal info! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
