But I think the Barking Strategy plays right into that. What do you say when somebody says "that nice Nick Griffin is going to kick out the immigrants and then my Tracey will be able to play in the street without getting filthy"?

DON'T say "Nick Griffin's a racist and a Fascist" "immigrants make a positive contribution to society in lots of ways" "it's not the fault of immigrants if the street's dirty" DO say "we've listened to local people and brought in a new street-sweeping rota which we think you'll be happy with"

Scale that up to the national scale and here we are - although, as Stephen said, they don't seem to have a scoobie what the equivalent of improved street-sweeping is, which rather undermines the entire strategy. (It's a bloody awful strategy, to be clear, but at least it makes a kind of sense.)
