Hitler had the notion that the Londoners would beg the parliament and the Prime Minister or the King to surrender to the Nazi Germans if they were bombed enough times. He failed to understand that it would only reinforce their resolve to defeat the Nazis.

Why was the bombing of London seen as both strategic and tactical error?

The bombing of London was both a strategic and tactical error because it served no military purpose. It achieved no military advantage as military bases, troops and equipment were located elsewhere. It didn't prevent Great Britain from sending more supplies and troops to the front. It failed to lower the moral of the population. Its main achievement was as propaganda press releases to the German population and to spur the British Government in to creating larger strikes themselves on German targets
