In an exclusive interview, Mike Tapp, a former political strategist, has revealed the startling early signs he observed that hinted at a seismic shift in British politics. His account sheds light on the undercurrents that reshaped the political landscape.
The Early Warnings
Tapp recalls the subtle yet unmistakable signals that something was amiss. "It wasn't just one thing," he explains. "It was a series of small events, whispers in corridors, and a growing disconnect between the public and policymakers."
A Fracturing Consensus
According to Tapp, the traditional political consensus began to crumble long before the headlines caught on. "I saw MPs from all parties becoming increasingly uneasy," he says. "There was a sense that the old rules no longer applied."
The Brexit Catalyst
Tapp identifies the Brexit referendum as the turning point that accelerated these trends. "The vote didn't create these divisions," he argues. "It simply exposed how deep they already ran."
Lessons for the Future
Looking ahead, Tapp warns against complacency. "Politicians who ignore these warning signs do so at their peril," he cautions. "The public's patience with business as usual is wearing thin."
His account serves as both a post-mortem of recent political turbulence and a cautionary tale for future leaders navigating an increasingly volatile political climate.
