I have to say, I'm staggered at how badly he's handled this. I genuinely thought he was the right guy for the job, but his "only grown up in the room" schtick really isn't working.

"This" being so many things. I know the press is always going to stick the boot in to any policy and the Tories are utterly shameless hypocrites, but the winter fuel allowance, the freebies, the benefits bill, now nothing over the summer and not doing a decent job of publicising the childcare
changes, they seem to be falling into so many completely predictable traps and to have very little idea of how to communicate their successes.
Their Clcomms are nowhere near aggressive enough, for my liking. Any other political party would be rolling out the ticker tape parades for the work they've done with renter/workers rights and childcare support, but they seem to shy away from advertising their wins, for some reason.
