"Last year #Reeves increased #taxes but did not formulate a narrative or strategy, nor did she give us a sense of where next. This autumn I fear she will need to raise taxes again, but in doing so she needs also to provide that narrative and come out all guns blazing against the unserious — on her own benches and beyond."

The narrative "They are spending money on asylum seekers and taking it away from the disabled" should be challenged with fact.

It equates to "Carrots have gone up 10% so now I can't afford a new Mercedes".

The problem is that Labour doesn't want fact based narratives. They foster what voters 'feel'.
