    Ok, but they need to nail the communication on it, else people will turn. The riots killed any form of honeymoon period.

    Lay out the strategy. Get public buy in. The biggest criticism of Labour before the election was not giving detail on the policies, and basically winning by not being The Conservatives. Now he needs to start filling in the detail, and not just saying “It’ll be shit for a while but, trust me bro, we’ll fix it.”

      The riots killed any form of honeymoon period.

      The riots were put down quickly and the yobs are rapidly being sentenced. And there’s no way the riots strengthened the opposition: the Tories were silent, and Fromage helped provoke them.

        Right, but it killed the public mood of the new government being viewed in a positive light just because they won and forced the Tories out. The party mood… the honeymoon period was over.
