contextual phrase
Blair’s most reckless pledge was to restore faith in public life (вернуть доверие в обществе к проводимой партией политике). Back on May Day 1997, even the most cynical observer did not anticipate they would have quite so much sleaze in them. In other respects, this government has delivered more than it promised. The last manifesto pledged nothing about child benefit – it has actually risen by 25 per cent. They did not claim to be able to create full employment, yet they have achieved that historic goal of Labour.

что в ней столько грязи
Наиболее опрометчивым было обещание Блэра восстановить уважение (англичан) к общественной жизни. До 1 мая 1997 года даже самый циничный обозреватель не предполагал, что в ней может быть столько грязи.
