- readiness to take responsibility for the consequences of ones words and deeds.
- not using fluff or obfuscating but telling it as it is.
- behaving with decency towards other people, and treating the opposite sex with respect.
- Considering a source credible when it agrees with a Conservative position, but ignoring the same sources when it does not.
