EH.Net Encyclopedia: Child Labor during the British Industrial Revolution Since the first reliable British Census that inquired about children's work was in 1841, it is impossible to compare the number of children employed on the farms and in cottage industry with the number of children employed in the factories during the heart of the British industrial revolution. According to the British Census, in 1841 the three most common occupations of boys were Agricultural Labourer, Domestic Servant and Cotton Manufacture with 196,640; 90,464 and 44,833 boys under 20 employed, respectively. Although the debate over whether children were exploited during the British Industrial Revolution continues today [see Nardinelli (1988) and Tuttle (1998)], Parliament passed several child labor laws after hearing the evidence collected. www.eh.net /encyclopedia/?article=tuttle.labor.child.britain

Jedi census phenomenon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Jedi census phenomenon was a grassroots movement in 2001 for citizens in a few English-speaking countries to record their religion as "Jedi" or "Jedi Knight" (after the fictitious religious order of Force-attuned knights in the Star Wars films) on the national census. In England and Wales 390,000 people (0.7%) stated their religion as Jedi on their 2001 Census forms, surpassing Sikhism, Judaism, and Buddhism, and making it the fourth largest reported religion in the country. Jedi is still not recognised as an "official" religion in any nation where the movement took place; however, it was assigned its own code in the United Kingdom for census processing. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Jedi_census_movement   (548 words)

BBC NEWS Scotland Anti-English claims "a myth" The number of English people living in Scotland is expected to exceed 400,000 when the 2001 census results are published. The survey came after British industry chief Digby Jones caused controversy when he suggested that Scots had "an enormous chip on their shoulder" which was deterring investment from England.
