The Labour Government started with a series of often welcome announcements but quite quickly got side tracked, partly thanks to media attacks (which one might think should have been anticipated) into arguments about freebies and No.10 staffing.
Whether the announcements will lead to actual changes, now that Parliament has returned from summer holidays and the conference season, remains to be seen. It was the key frustration of Labour after 1997 that change took longer than hoped and was more difficult to achieve than anticipated.
Steve Bell drew the above just before the 4th July Election but it anticipates a key milestone in any Government- the first 100 days. This is due up shortly for the new Government
Bell stands in a long tradition of taking a rather acerbic look at the political process and rightly so. We might hope that things can only get better but that doesn’t always work out…
Steve Bell is spot on so many times
