Simon Case, a former senior civil servant, critiqued the Labour government's early transition period, highlighting a lack of communication regarding policies. While he emphasized that more thought was needed in certain areas, he refuted claims that the situation amounted to chaos. His insights reflected challenges during critical early weeks marked by social unrest and other controversies. Case acknowledged the proactive intentions of Sir Keir Starmer's administration but noted that these were not effectively conveyed throughout the government.
"There were areas where... we weren't communicating that effectively across all of government."
"Definitely I would say, early on, we weren't good enough at communicating what wanted to be done and what that needed to be to everybody."
