It’s much like Hungary in that respect as well. Hungary’s socialists have been running trying to be the “strongest opposition party” for nearly 15 years as well.
And the antidote to that seems to be, at least currently (we’ll see if it holds up to the election) economically left wing populism with a strict centrist noncommittal take on social issues.
So for example if you get asked about LGBTQ rights, instead of getting bogged down in the made up social issues of the right, say “this is not our current biggest problem, look at our terrible infrastructure/healthcare/wages, that’s what we want to address first, we’ll just put social issues to referendum”.
