Has there been a reset in the election campaign?

The election campaign is restarting, but has the political vacuum of four days affected the parties and the leaders?

Times journalist Matt Chorley tells Radio 4's PM that if he were advising Jeremy Corbyn, focusing on Theresa May's "worst day of campaigning" before the break "would have made more political sense", rather than restarting on a different tack.

Given that the Conservatives had a "bit of a wobble over social care" he predicts that they will restart by focusing on Brexit by reminding voters "who do you want to go to Brussels?".
