GA Reassessment
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.''

To uphold the quality of Good articles, all articles listed as Good articles are being reviewed against the GA criteria as part of the GA project quality task force. While all the hard work that has gone into this article is appreciated, unfortunately, as of September 17, 2009, this article fails to satisfy the criteria, as detailed below. For that reason, the article has been delisted from WP:GA. However, if improvements are made bringing the article up to standards, the article may be nominated at WP:GAN. If you feel this decision has been made in error, you may seek remediation at WP:GAR.


 * The most serious problems with this article is its apparent lack of neutrality. In places such as the second paragraph of the Gay equality issue it even looks like a political pamphlet written by one of Kelly's opponents. Particular care needs to be taken in biographies of living people to present a balanced and neutral view.


 * There has been a tag in place questioning the neutrality of this article since December 2007.


 * The citations are patchy and in many places misleading. For instance, the first citation in the Secretary of State for Transport section, which prima facie is the source for all of the preceeding material, in reality only sources the cannabis claim, leaving the rest unsourced.


 * Significant sections are completely uncited, the majority of the Career as an MP section, for instance.


 * The structure of the article needs some attention; the Secretary of State for Transport section, for instance, is a series of short stubby subsections that ought to me merged into flowing prose.


 * There are at least four dead links.
