The coalition agreement of 2010 trumpeted a plan "to completely recast the relationship between people and the state". Out with nannyish health and safety. Out with humiliating criminal-records checks. Out with ambulance-chasing lawyers who chill the spirits of the public-spirited and entrepreneurial. Common sense would replace clipboards. A report on health and safety by Lord Young, part-written when the Tories were still in opposition and published in October 2010, smacks of the admirable spirit of that age. Lord Young decried a "climate of fear" affecting every aspect of life; he portrayed a world where unqualified consultants issued Utopian recommendations to eliminate risk that choked enterprise but boosted their own fees. A report on volunteering called "Unshackling Good Neighbors" was similarly apocalyptic. It said a "suffocating blanket of red tape and an insidious mythology about being sued are deterring millions of Britons, volunteer organizations and charities." Polemicist is easy. So is setting up a Twitter-friendly website and inviting public comments (the government's Red Tape Challenge site drew 28,800). Actually changing the way the country works is much harder.
