UK’s Starmer to Warn Change Will Take Time, Blame ‘Rot’ at Core

“When there is rot deep in the heart of a structure, you can’t just cover it up. You can’t tinker with it or rely on quick fixes. You have to overhaul the entire thing,” Starmer will say in the first major set-piece speech of his seven-week tenure.
I'm not Starmer's biggest fan, but the thing I appreciate about his approach is that he appreciates that a lot of the problems we face need holistic solutions. Unfortunately, that is going to take time to trickle through.
25Ok, 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."
