Woodrot - you only provide a binary choice Love or Hate. Most of us are too nuanced for that, so why not propose a scaled approach?


1 = Consuming Hatred


10 = Uncritical Love


With ZERO (0) to represent the "frankly I don't give a damn" position.


For your list my scores are:


The Royal Family The Queen - 8, the rest 5


Nick Clegg 0


Thatcher 8


Richard Branson 6


Former members of Genesis 0


Apple 7


And to add a few more:


Ken Livingstone 2


Arthur Scargill 2


New Nexus 2


Stalin 2


Hitler 1


Katie Price 0

A Hate Index?, good work MM!!!


I'm having a think and I'm clearly mellowing in my old age, the royals on masse barely register a 6, Queenie earning herself a 7 for unselfish if rather dull service over the years despite my instinctive republican leanings, though Charlie probably gets a 4.


Tories in a general principal sort of way potter between 5 and 6 though I'm sure I can muster one or two to go lower, ditto labour.


Galloway, he could probably get a 3 in good company with premiership football.


Katie Price is a 0 though what she represents is pretty much 2.


Paying booking fees on gig tickets (at a per ticket basis gggnnrrrrrrrkrkkhkrhrr!!!) is the only thing I can think of that gets a 1.


Oh, and Tony Blair obviously.

Bob Crow and the RMT: 1 (assuming the meter stops there. Else -99)


Camilla: 8 (the lady is just class in her dignified silence)


Ken: 7 (glad he lost the election, but do have a soft spot for him)


Ed Miliband: Meh. High on the Don't-Care-O-Meter. I mean, I'm not sure he actually exists.


The Guardian: 3 or 7, depending on what day it is and what stupid/smart opinion they have posted today.


Judge Judy: 9


Microsoft: 7 (when I am using Word)


Microsoft: 2 (when I am using Excel 2007)

    • I was lucky that I received a student grant from 1990-1995 first 3 years for degree and 2 years post graduate bursary. Both were based on my income and I did not have to pay back. Eldest daughter got student loan and after 20 years managed to pay it off, Youngest daughter still paying hers 18 years later. Granddaughter - still paying after 6 years. Grandson decided against FE and secured an apprentenship. I am glad that I am an old codger and not young anymore !

    • It is not only Southwark - our grandson, partner and 7 year old had a one bed council flat for years in Harlow Essex and all the properties offered were in poor condition. They eventually took a property as if they refused another one they would drop to the bottom of the Housing List. It was damp and in need of a level of renovation. Having lived in these conditions for a while they were offered better council accommodation recently, but further away from child's school. They had to pay 2 lots of rent for a few weeks as council had to undertake work in the new premises before they could move in,
    • Just had an interior decorating job done by Andy. The final outcome looks lovely and he did some remedial work at the same time to fill in gaps in the ceiling (due to previous electrical work) and to remediate any similar areas to ensure a polished overall look. Would highly recommend him for any similar job, he quoted a very reasonable price for the job as well. Thanks Andy!
