Accountability assessment

What this record does and does not attribute to the government (see methodology). Where an underlying problem predates this government, only its handling is attributed.

A strong political-warning indicator, but comparisons between parliamentary and local elections are not perfectly like-for-like and should not be described as a direct approval-rating calculation.

Evidence label: Outcome / indicator (An outcome, indicator or cross-cutting pattern useful for scale and background, not itself a culpability claim.). Record as of edition 2026-08-24.
