About

Public review of our scores

Our scores are drafts. Until an independent expert panel is in place, anyone can challenge them with evidence, and every decision is published here with our reasons.

Draft Scores are open for public review.

Pick a government to challenge Method §10

The review window

The open review window runs for 30 days, from 12 October 2026 to 11 November 2026.

How to challenge a score

  1. Open the government's scorecard and choose Challenge this score.
  2. Say which part you are challenging (economic, credibility or reforms), the score you think is right, why, and a link to your source.
  3. Your email app opens with the challenge filled in, addressed to [email protected]. Nothing is sent by this site.

How challenges are judged: evidence over opinion

  • A challenge needs a dated, checkable source. Opinions, however strongly held, do not change a score on their own.
  • We apply the published method (indicators, weights and thresholds) the same way to every government. A challenge can show that we applied it wrongly or missed evidence; it cannot ask for a different rule for one government.
  • New evidence that we accept is added to the government's public evidence list, with its source.
  • Every challenge we review is logged below as accepted or rejected, with our reasons and what changed. Scores are never changed silently.

Review log: accepted and rejected challenges

Public changelog of reviewed challenges. Method changes are listed separately in the method changelog.

No challenges reviewed yet. Accepted and rejected challenges will appear here, newest first, each with a link you can share.

Next: an independent expert panel

Public review is the first stage. An independent two-person expert panel, with differing economic views, will follow; it has not been appointed yet. How it will work is set out in §10 of the method.
