Coalition scorecard - 50p tax rate

+1 ... David Cameron's intention to retain the 50p rate of tax shows that some sanity remains in Downing Street.
OVERALL: 0/10. Another steal from Labour. Smart politics by Cameron, gradually substituting sensible, centrist policy for the divisive lunacy of Osbornism. Also sane economics. Of course, it's only a rumour at this stage. A few more nudges left may see the coalition in positive territory!

EDIT: This turned out to be untrue, to the Coalition dips into negative territory.  Further offenses on decency included The Bonfire of the Enviornmental Regulations (-1) and continual dithering and in activity over Syria (-1) so an overall score of -2.
