They've actually been fucking up consistently since 2010. What's new is that the consequences of those fuck ups now make themselves apparent within days or in some cases hours rather than taking years or decades to play out, so even the Tory client media can't try and blame them on elves or pixies or whatever: not that some of them didn't try.

EDIT: this time the also directly harmed the financial interests of their own base; which is primarily home owners and pensioners. bit of a no-no.
