Death of a Census?

The Census provides a snapshot of the state of the nation - should it survive? Matt visits the cupboard where Emily Wilding Davison hid in Parliament during the 1911 census, talks to a genealogist about his proud family history of criminals, and hears from someone who puts 'Jedi' down as their religion. Plus: Columnists James Marriott and Carol Lewis discuss why new build homes are so shoddy, whether actors should stop being critical of politicians, and how to give away 25 million euros.
