As this is the oldest nomination, I'll take it on. I am interested in politics, which helps. I'll be using the basic criteria below as a checklist and hope to provide the review soon. Please contact me if there is anything I should know about the article that might influence the review. Thanks. No Great Shaker (talk) 09:11, 4 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is looking good. I've had to do a certain amount of copyediting to tidy things up but nothing major. The only thing outstanding is request for an additional citation at the end of a sentence containing quotes. I'm placing the article on hold for now and, if the remaining citation can be provided fairly soon, I'll be happy to pass this. It's interesting, concise, well written and informative. Thanks.

Okay, well, I was just about to fail this because of no response but I decided to try and find the necessary source myself and, guess what, the content including quotation is in the same article as that in the next sentence. Problem solved and I can instead now pass the article, which I'm very pleased to do. Well done. No Great Shaker (talk) 15:07, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
