And can I just add that there is no likelihood that the law will be changed by the current parliament.

This is not a spam, there is actually a petition that you can sign your name to. The petitions website is a legitimate way that you can get your views made to No10. Whether or not anything happens as a result, is a different matter.

To be perfectly honest I would not insult those who filled in their forms believing that the information would be confidential for 100 years for the sake of a hobby.

Well Agnes has been here since 2003 so I don't think it is spam in her case. We tend to forget that this is the general board and people may want to discuss genealogy on it lol I was very keen on getting the 1911 released early at one point although now I think where will it all end.
