How to Defeat the National Populists

"A progressive alternative to the national populist agenda should aim to unify rather than divide."

"there are lessons to be learnt from Britain’s cities. Because of the perceived failures of Labour local government in the 1980s, the party hesitates to trumpet its successes in encouraging culture, education and sport-led economic regeneration in cities like Manchester, Birmingham, Sheffield and cities of culture like Liverpool and Hull. The astounding improvement in inner-London education (once regarded as a basket-case) is an example of how progressive policy in the public sector can achieve results, in this case particularly for girls."
