This fella's having a bit of a laugh here, surely.
15,000 nazis marched down whitehall just 2 months ago, in the biggest far-right rally in the UK for almost 90 years. Owen Jones pointing that out isn't even slightly the same thing as saying "Britain is in thrall to the far right".
He seems to be trying to say that Britain, as a whole, won't vote in large numbers for overtly racist parties, which is fine. He's being a bit silly by suggesting that has much (if any) effect on the motivations of far right goons who are freshly-emboldened and gathering in worrying numbers.
