  1. Well written: the prose is clear and concise.  
  2. Well written: the spelling and grammar are correct.  
  3. Complies with the MOS guidelines for lead sections.  
  4. Complies with the MOS guidelines for article structure and layout.  
  5. Complies with the MOS guidelines for words to watch (e.g., "awesome" and "stunning").  
  6. Complies with the MOS guidelines for writing about fiction. Not applicable.
  7. Complies with the MOS guidelines for list incorporation. Not applicable.
  8. Complies with the MOS guidelines for use of quotations.  
  9. All statements are verifiable with inline citations provided.  
  10. All inline citations are from reliable sources, etc.  
  11. Contains a list of all references in accordance with the layout style guideline.  
  12. No original research.  
  13. No copyright violations or plagiarism.  
  14. Broad in its coverage but within scope and in summary style.  
  15. Neutral.  
  16. Stable.  
  17. Illustrated, if possible.  
  18. Images are at least fair use and do not breach copyright.  

Well, this should not have been on the waiting list so long. Apart from needing a few minor tweaks, it met all the applicable criteria and easily surpasses GA standard. It is particularly well referenced with more than ample sourcing and the breadth of coverage is just about right. I can't say I'm happy to be reviewing an article about a Tory but that makes for a useful exercise in applied objectivity! The article is nonetheless a good piece of work and I'm happy to award it a quick pass. Well done. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:36, 23 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
