You're probably right, actually:

Across the board, the British public are more positive about how the riots were handled now than they were at the time. Compared to a fortnight ago, the proportion of Britons feeling the police handled them well has increased from 52% to 63%, while the number believing the legal system has done a good job dealing with the situation has shot up from just a quarter of Britons (27%) to a clear majority of 57%.

Keir Starmer has also seen something of a turnaround. Now, the public are roughly evenly split on how the prime minister handled the riots, with 43% thinking he handled them well and 40% viewing his response as poor. At the time of the riots, the public had taken a significantly more negative view, with only 31% saying Starmer was reacting well compared to 49% who thought he was doing a bad job.

This improved view of the prime minister’s handling is apparent among all groups, but has been most notable among Conservatives, a third of whom (35%) now feel he did a good job, up from one in six (16%) a fortnight ago.
