Great article, thanks for sharing. My challenges below.

‘ Currently the political centre in this country appears to be taking the line that the far right is voicing some kind of genuine complaint to which the rest of us must listen ‘

Of course it is a genuine, that’s the whole point. As socialists we are not listening to large sections of English, and yes, mostly white communities. We need to understand these complaints, because they are real, and to continually dismiss them as not legitimate or racist is the mistake we are making.
