Everyone can have one. Attach yours below. Starting score is 5/10. Every time the government does something you approve of, increase the score by one. When they do something you disapprove of, take a point off. Brief comments as to what is influencing the score appreciated.

Mine:
+0 ... 5% pay cut for MPs. Silly gesture politics.
+1 ... Tax cut for the poorest, funded by the wealthiest. good and redistributive.
+1 ... The 55% rule is a good thing, would be even better at 66%.
+1 ....$10 billion of new spending. Even better, it makes the Tories look like scaremongering hypocrites.
-1 ... Plans to reduce the number of constituencies a VERY BAD THING.
+1 ... Increasing the capital gains tax, but ...
-1 ... Osbourne trying to hold off on it, pandering to wealthy Tories.
-1 ... Cutting business tax. Don't these fuckers know there is a DeT MowTIN?
-1 ... Hague's empty words on IDF killings. After ripping off our passports, why are we still talking to these murderous savages?
+1 ... Opening the books on spending. Possibly just to humiliate the last administration, but still a good move towards openness.
OVERALL: 6/10 - Still impressed with moves towards openness at home, but some signs that foreign affairs are going to be business-as-usual. the New politics stops at Dover, it seems.

-1 Lib Dems, leaving door open to nuclear power
-1 Deficit reduction to start immediately
-1 Trident still being replaced
-1 Action on climate change watered down
-1 Tories can still campaign against the AV referendum
-1 Hardline stance on Iran
-1 Scotland condemned to a Tory Gov when overwhelmingly against them
-1 Existing education resources to be raped for the new Tory "volunteer" schools
I see no reason to start at 5 so overall a minus 8

No 500000 voted for 300 odd (distinctly odd) BNP candidates.

They don't have one seat which is a bonus.

There are more ospreys in Scotland than Tories. All my life Scotland has rejected the Tories yet for most of that time we were subjected to a Tory Gov. They are the fourth party after SNP, Labour and Lib Dems in Holyrood. Lib Dems will suffer in the Scottish elections for giving us a Tory Gov again. The sooner we can shed the ball & chain that is England the better. |
