Overall ethical score
-25.93
Reasoned summary
Economic administration and international cooperation receive limited positive weight. The overall result is negative because migration deterrence and majoritarian social policy impose grave costs on vulnerable people and weaken equal rights.
This assessment presents six separate ethical dimensions rather than one overall moral score. Each result must be read with its evidence, plausible range, confidence, disputes, exclusions, severe-harm findings and sources.
Most significant negative evidence
The strongest negative evidence concerns migration deals that externalise protection obligations, interference with rescue at sea, restrictions on protest and serious concerns affecting LGBT, reproductive and media rights.
