Yes, but everything is broken and they only have so much capacity, can't do everything at once. They also can't really take on the press/media until they have some evidence of moving in the right direction on issues that people care about and can feel - they need credibility first.

Blair govt also moved pretty fast, shift to investment, training and of wealth from rich to poor measurable after a year.
Credibility is achieved by leading, not by waiting.
e.g., 1st 'Green' chancellor, Reeves, is a joke.
He was pretty silent on, e.g., Syria, as were much of the so-called 'left'.
The economy Blair inherited was a disaster, and infrastructure far more worn out due to length of time of Tory power.
