In theory they 💯 should have had an early Budget. In practice, given their cartoonish unpreparedness for a whole range of issues that obviously needed tackling, some of which they'd talked about pre-election, they absolutely shouldn't have.

A whole range of issues that presumably included a week of far right rioting? It continues to amaze me how people seem to have completely memory-holed that whole episode, which was not exactly a minor issue for a new government to deal with.

This. It was practically impossible.
