Should us motorists make a protest statement in the census?

    Rather than clog up the roads with protest marches about the price of petrol instead with the Census being compiled shortly, should us petrolheads make a protest and register our religion as petrolhead or motorist in a move to draw attention to the amount of money the government is taking in taxes from petrol. Perhaps more relevant with the UK cutting duty on fuel in their budget during the week.

    no - the census is not the place to lodge a protest

    Of the many different ways to protest, I wouldn't think that this would be one of the better ones.

    Admit it, you've registered yourself as the religious leader of a faith called The Motorists. You're just looking for enough documented followers so you can get some form of tax exempt status.

    Rumbled! :)

    Total waste of time.

    People go out of their way to write BS on ballot papers during elections, nobody cares.
