Excerpt:

European innovators are laying out strong positions as they gathered Thursday for exactly what guarantees to be a turbulent and long top on the 7-year spending plan for the 27-country European Union. In a fight pitting numerous rich member states against those looking for a bigger aid spending plan, U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron led the fee for those looking for a decrease in the financial clout-- and political sway-- of the EU's establishments. As he arrived for an initial conference with Herman Van Rompuy, president of the European Council of the 27 presidents and federal government, Cameron stated he was not happy with the most recent spending plan proposals. "These are very important negotiations," Cameron stated.

-0.226561"These are very important negotiations," Cameron said. "And clearly, at a time when we're making difficult decisions at home over public spending, it would be quite wrong — it is quite wrong — for there to be proposals for this increased extra spending in the EU. So we're going to be negotiating very hard for a good deal for Britain's taxpayers and for Europe's taxpayers, and to keep the British rebate."

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
