People like this know that being racist is bad which is a good thing. The problem we have is that they think that you're only a racist if you're overtly aggressive to other races. Somehow we need to educate and challenge that assumption.

I'm (probably naively) hoping that this is largely a ploy to get everyone else to loudly state the positives of migration without Reform getting all the attention for promoting the negative argument, so the plans can be publicly scrapped without too much backlash.
