What is happening in the UK census? We had it ages ago along with the "If you're not religious for gods sake say so" campaign. Since then nothing is happening that I'm aware of, I believe statistics are due to be released in late 2012.
I suspect although many more people could be considered atheists than usually say so on censuses I seriously doubt the campaign we had (in the UK) will make a significant difference.
