> Island FM, Channel 103 and Soleil Radio all ran the Deputy Scorecard, with William Walter interviewed on stagnant growth and why the States should be televised.

Tindle Radio's Channel Islands stations reported the Scorecard on 25 August as an online resource matching deputies' pledges to their voting records, timed to the resumption of the GST debate. The same report ran on [Island FM](https://www.islandfm.com/news/guernsey/detailed-dive-into-the-performance-of-guernsey-politicians/) in Guernsey, [Channel 103](https://www.channel103.com/news/guernsey/detailed-dive-into-the-performance-of-guernsey-politicians/) in Jersey and [Soleil Radio](https://www.soleilradio.com/news/guernsey/detailed-dive-into-the-performance-of-guernsey-politicians/).

It picks up the GST finding, that of the 12 deputies opposed to the tax at the June 2025 election only three could be measured against an actual vote and only one of those stuck to the promise, and runs the speaking data alongside it. It also notes that deputies were given the chance to check the work and add their own comments before publication, which is why the station treats it as a fair record of the first year of this term.

**When I grew up in Guernsey, during the 90s and early 2000s, it was really boom time for the island, and over the past 10 years it's really stagnated in its economic growth.

William Walter, speaking to Island FM

The interview also made the case for televising States meetings, on the grounds that deputies are debating genuinely interesting questions in a room almost nobody can watch.
