Default Need to strengthen water pipe attachment?

Tap on sink is held on with a plastic knurled nut, copper pipe is then
soldered to tap connection.
The plastic nut cracked and fell off (and got lost) so tap is loose
fitting on the sink. Any way I can easily secure this fitting for a few
months as I intend to refurbish the bathroom spring next year.
I am not confident with plumbing so looking for a non plumbing short
term fix.


I pity a man with plastic nuts, they're a bit useless. Silicone is the usual bodge.
