I’m sure capitulating to the far-right’s framing and letting them control the narrative won’t backfire in the slightest.

One MP said one of the main pieces of advice had been to identify projects local voters have long been asking for and to make sure they are delivered. McSweeney has told allies he helped defeat the British National party in east London 15 years ago in part by focusing on areas where previous local and national governments had promised infrastructure projects but failed to build them.

Thank god someone high up in Labour has a head on their shoulders. You defeat the far-right by making people’s lives better.
