About one month before the November 2006 General Election we contacted all candidates with a single page Questionnaire based on the PAG Charter.
To each question they could either tick 'agree' or 'disagree' or 'undecided'. In addition there was a space for comments on each question.
Well, did they keep their promises to us? The answer is a resounding NO!
Here's the analysis of our MHKs responses to a few of our questions:
| Do you agree to work to achieve the following changes as soon as possible after November 23rd 2006? | Agree | Disagree | Don't Know |
|
19 | 0 | 0 |
|
17 | 1 | 1 |
|
13 | 1 | 5 |
|
19 Responses: 14 completed questionnaire, 5 by letter (Anderson, Brown, Craine, Gill, Teare) DID NOT REPLY: Bell, Henderson, Karran, Corkish, Cregeen |
So, overwhelming support on paper before an Election for two important issues, but amnesiac inactivity in the 5 years following it.
