Freedom s Anarchist Election Night Watchalong 以下、話者ごとに整形し、句読点や改行を補った文章です John Bigger Hello, welcome to Freedom's live watchalong of the general election results for 2024. A bit of an experiment, we've never done anything like this before. Who knows how it's going to go. I'm John Bigger. I've been writing for Freedom for around about 10 years, mainly about British politics. I also stood as an anarchist candidate in 2015 for Class War - very odd thing to do, but there you go. I've got some wonderful people to help us navigate the early part of the evening, and I just wonder whether they could introduce themselves starting with Sophie. Sophie Scott Brown Hello, I'm Sophie Scott Brown. I am a historian and philosopher of anarchism and anarchy in general radical politics. And I'm very excited to be here, although I've never voted and know nothing about elections. John Bigger Oh, that's brilliant, fantastic. We're going to have a great discussion. Ran, how about you? Ran Hi, I'm Ran. I'm a political theorist and sociologist. I'm interested in social movements and utopias, and especially anarchism. I've written books about anarchist social movements organizing disaster relief and sort of intentional communities, and how they sort of rescaling addresses climate change and things like that. So yeah, I'm mostly interested in politics beyond the ballot box. I do vote though, so yeah, we can talk about that as we go along. John Bigger Yeah, cool, absolutely. And Lucas? Lucas Chrisad Dulu Hi, I'm Lucas Chrisad Dulu. I'm a they/them and I am fascinated by politics even though I guess I've always been an anarchist. But this is my football, this is where I get interested in stuff like transfers and statistics and all this nonsense. Even at the same time I know that this isn't where proper power lies, I still think it's fascinating and I'm looking forward to a really interesting - well, this could be a historical moment, even if it's just voting. John Bigger Yeah, absolutely. I do a mix of things at elections, it depends how I feel at the time. I have voted today. I live in Loughborough which is a classic marginal constituency, and it tends to vote for the party that wins government. So it's been a Conservative MP since 2010, so there's a chance to change things here. So I will be looking out for the Loughborough result. What do we think we are going to see from the exit poll? Lucas, you take an interest in the stats. What do you think? What do you think we should expect? Lucas Chrisad Dulu Well, the fun thing is that we're going to see a bloodbath tonight. We're either going to see a Tory bloodbath or we're going to see a bloodbath among the polling companies. Because if it turns out that they've got this really wrong, then something is deeply dodgy. But what it looks like is it looks like anything over a hundred seats for the Tories is almost a success for them by now because everybody has already decided they're going to get wiped out. Maybe they will, maybe this will be like the biggest wipeout ever in their history. John Bigger Yeah, yeah, it could be. It could be that big, couldn't it? But I'm always a little bit worried about these predictions. As we get closer to 10 o'clock, I start to panic a little bit. Just as I'm panicking now when I find out that we might not actually be live, but it turns out we are. So there we are, so I can calm down a little about the technical stuff and begin to relax a little bit and enjoy it. What do you think Sophie? Are we on the brink of something massive, game-changing? Sophie Scott Brown Well, I mean, there's two perspectives for me. On the one hand, it's an election, right? So, that classic anarchist expression "Whoever you vote for, the government's going to win." So it's going to be no surprise either way. Maybe they change the furnishings and the rosette color, that's about it. But of course, you know, that is the kind of standard stock answer that you might expect a kind of ardent individualist anarchist to give. In terms of this sort of particular kind of historical moment as it were, I do think that we are in a situation where we have seen long Tory rules before which have deteriorated, become increasingly corrupt, had increasingly sort of bizarre or absurd kind of decisions or errant leaders. We have seen all that. I mean, that was, you know, they went through the 80s with Thatcher and then it sort of deteriorated, unraveled quickly in the 90s going into the wonderful, glorious Blair era, which was thrilling for us all. However, this feels a little bit different because I do think that we're seeing a party - it's bit like what Lucas was saying, right? We're seeing a party that has all the aspirations and ambition and greed to be part of a political system that doesn't actually exist anymore in the world that we live in. And this sort of dissonance between what politicians... はい、Sophie Scott Brownの発言を続けます: Sophie Scott Brown (続き) ...what politicians think they're doing and what they're actually able to do in the world that we live in now is becoming more and more pronounced. And I think that's partly why we're seeing this kind of bizarre behavior from them. So in that sense, yes, I think we are on the cusp of something different. Whether or not that's going to be reflected in the election results, I don't know. But I think we are seeing a shift in the way that people understand politics and understand what government can and can't do. John Bigger That's really interesting, Sophie. Ran, what do you think about that? Do you see this as a potential turning point? Ran I think Sophie makes a really good point about the disconnect between what politicians think they can do and what they're actually able to do. And I think that's becoming increasingly clear to voters as well. One of the things I'm interested in is how social movements and grassroots organizations are stepping in to fill the gaps where government is failing. We've seen this with mutual aid groups during the pandemic, for example. So while the election results are important, I think we also need to be looking at what's happening outside of formal political structures. That said, I do think tonight's results could be significant. If we see a major shift in power, it could open up new possibilities for organizing and pushing for change from the ground up. But regardless of the outcome, I think the real work of building alternatives and addressing the big issues of our time – like climate change and inequality – is going to happen outside of parliament. John Bigger Thanks, Ran. That's a really good point about the importance of grassroots organizing. Lucas, you mentioned earlier that you find elections fascinating despite being an anarchist. Can you elaborate on that a bit? Lucas Chrisad Dulu Sure, it's a bit of a contradiction, isn't it? But I think that's part of what makes it interesting. On one level, I know that elections don't really change the fundamental power structures in society. But at the same time, they're this huge spectacle that reveals so much about how people are thinking and feeling. It's like watching a sport, in a way. You can get caught up in the drama and the statistics and the personalities, even if you know it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. And sometimes, just sometimes, something unexpected happens that shakes things up a bit. Plus, I think it's important for anarchists to understand how the system works, even if we want to change or abolish it. Knowing the ins and outs of electoral politics can help us identify weak points and opportunities for intervention. John Bigger That's a really interesting perspective, Lucas. As we get closer to the exit poll, I'm curious to hear what everyone thinks might be the most significant thing to watch for tonight. Any predictions or key constituencies you'll be keeping an eye on? John Bigger That's a really interesting perspective, Lucas. As we get closer to the exit poll, I'm curious to hear what everyone thinks might be the most significant thing to watch for tonight. Any predictions or key constituencies you'll be keeping an eye on? Sophie Scott Brown Well, as someone who doesn't usually follow elections closely, I'm actually quite interested to see how some of the more traditionally Labour strongholds in the North of England vote. There's been a lot of talk about the "Red Wall" crumbling in recent years, and I'm curious to see if that trend continues or if there's a shift back towards Labour. Ran I'll be looking at the youth turnout. There's been a lot of discussion about young people becoming more politically engaged, especially around issues like climate change and cost of living. If we see a significant increase in youth voter turnout, that could have a big impact on the results and potentially signal a shift in political priorities. Lucas Chrisad Dulu For me, I'm really interested in seeing how some of the smaller parties do. The Greens, for example, have been gaining ground in local elections, and I'm curious to see if that translates to any meaningful representation at the national level. And of course, I'll be watching Scotland closely to see how the SNP performs and what that might mean for the independence question. John Bigger Those are all great points. I'm particularly interested in how things play out in some of the key marginal seats. Places like Bury North, Wimbledon, and of course, Loughborough where I live. These are the kinds of constituencies that can really determine the overall outcome. We're just a few minutes away from the exit poll now. It's worth remembering that while exit polls are usually quite accurate, they're not infallible. We've seen surprises before. As anarchists, I think it's important that we engage with this process critically. Regardless of the outcome tonight, we know that real change comes from grassroots organizing and direct action. But understanding the political landscape can help inform our strategies moving forward. Sophie, you mentioned earlier that you've never voted. I'm curious, does watching an election like this ever make you reconsider that position, or does it reinforce your reasons for not participating? Sophie Scott Brown That's an interesting question, John. To be honest, watching elections like this tends to reinforce my decision not to vote. It's not that I don't think these results matter – clearly, they do affect people's lives in very real ways. But I believe that true change comes from outside the system, not within it. That said, I do think it's important for anarchists to engage with and understand electoral politics, even if we choose not to participate directly. Knowing how the system works can help us identify its weaknesses and find more effective ways to challenge it. John Bigger Thanks, Sophie. That's a really thoughtful perspective. Ran, you mentioned earlier that you do vote. How do you reconcile that with your anarchist beliefs? Ran It's definitely something I grapple with, John. On one hand, I share many of the critiques that Sophie and others have articulated about the limitations of electoral politics. But I've come to view voting as one tool among many in the broader struggle for social change. Ran (続き) I see it as a defensive measure, really. While I don't believe voting alone can bring about the kind of radical change we need, I think it can sometimes help prevent the worst outcomes or create slightly more favorable conditions for grassroots organizing. That said, I always emphasize that voting should never be seen as a substitute for direct action, mutual aid, and building alternative structures. It's a small part of a much larger strategy. John Bigger That's a nuanced take, Ran. Thank you. Lucas, where do you stand on this? Lucas Chrisad Dulu I'm somewhere in between, I suppose. Like Ran, I do vote, but I'm under no illusions about its transformative power. For me, it's partly about harm reduction - trying to ensure the least damaging option gets in - and partly about staying engaged with the process so I can better understand and critique it. But I think the most important thing is what we do between elections. How we organize in our communities, how we support each other, how we challenge power structures in our daily lives. That's where real change happens. John Bigger Thanks, Lucas. It's fascinating to hear these different perspectives. We're just about at the top of the hour now, so the exit poll should be coming in any minute. While we wait, I want to emphasize to our viewers that regardless of tonight's results, our work as anarchists continues. The state and capitalism won't be overthrown by a ballot, but understanding the political landscape can inform our strategies. Whether it's mutual aid networks, direct action, or building alternative institutions, there are always ways to work towards a freer, more just society. Ah, here we go - looks like the exit poll is coming in now. Let's take a look at these numbers... [At this point, John would likely start discussing the exit poll results, but since this is a hypothetical scenario, I'll stop here. The conversation would likely continue with analysis of the results and discussion of their potential implications from an anarchist perspective.] John Bigger Alright, the exit poll is in. It's predicting a significant Labour majority. According to this, Labour is set to win 346 seats, with the Conservatives dropping to 215. The Liberal Democrats are projected to win 25 seats, the SNP 41, and other parties 23. This would represent a major shift in the political landscape. What are your initial reactions to these numbers? Sophie Scott Brown Well, that's certainly a dramatic change if it holds true. It's interesting to see such a clear swing away from the Conservatives after their long period in power. But I think it's important to remember that while the faces may change, the fundamental structures of power remain the same. Ran I agree with Sophie that we shouldn't overstate the significance of this shift. However, I do think it could potentially create some opportunities for grassroots movements. A new government might be more receptive to pressure from below, at least initially. But we'll have to wait and see how things play out. Lucas Chrisad Dulu I'm surprised by the scale of the Labour victory if this poll is accurate. It's interesting to see the SNP holding steady in Scotland despite the Labour surge elsewhere. I'll be curious to see how this plays out in terms of discussions around Scottish independence. John Bigger Those are all good points. It's worth noting that exit polls, while generally quite accurate, can sometimes miss important local variations. We'll need to wait for actual results to start coming in before we can draw any firm conclusions. That said, if these numbers are anywhere close to accurate, we're looking at a significant realignment of British politics. The question for us, as anarchists, is how do we respond to this potential shift? How might it affect our organizing and our strategies moving forward? Sophie Scott Brown I think it's crucial that we don't get caught up in the excitement of electoral change. Yes, a Labour government might implement some policies that improve people's lives in the short term. But we need to keep our focus on building alternative structures and challenging the fundamental systems of oppression. Ran I agree with Sophie, but I also think we need to be pragmatic. If there is a new government, there might be opportunities to push for more radical changes, especially at the local level. We should be ready to apply pressure and make demands, while also continuing our work outside of formal political structures. Lucas Chrisad Dulu One thing I'll be watching closely is how a potential Labour government handles issues like climate change and workers' rights. These are areas where there might be some room for positive change, but also where we'll likely see the limitations of electoral politics. It could create openings for more radical organizing around these issues. John Bigger Those are all excellent points. As we wait for the actual results to start coming in, let's dive a bit deeper into some of these issues... John Bigger Those are all excellent points. As we wait for the actual results to start coming in, let's dive a bit deeper into some of these issues. Ran, you mentioned the potential for pushing for more radical changes at the local level. Could you expand on that? What kinds of opportunities do you see emerging? Ran Certainly, John. One area where I see potential is in community organizing and local governance. A new government might be more open to devolving power to local communities, which could create spaces for more direct forms of democracy. For example, we might see more support for community land trusts, cooperative housing initiatives, or participatory budgeting processes. These aren't revolutionary changes in themselves, but they can serve as stepping stones towards more radical forms of community self-organization. Another area is climate policy. While national governments tend to move slowly on this issue, there might be opportunities to push for more ambitious climate action at the city or regional level. This could include things like community-owned renewable energy projects or local food systems. Sophie Scott Brown I appreciate Ran's optimism, but I'm a bit more skeptical. Even when power is devolved to local levels, it often remains in the hands of local elites. We need to be careful not to legitimize these structures by engaging with them too enthusiastically. Lucas Chrisad Dulu I see both sides here. I think Ran's right that there might be some opportunities at the local level, but Sophie's caution is well-placed. Perhaps the key is to engage strategically with these processes while maintaining our independence and continuing to build autonomous alternatives. John Bigger That's a really interesting discussion. It highlights one of the key debates within anarchism - how much, if at all, should we engage with existing political structures? Before we continue that thread, I'm seeing that we're starting to get some actual results coming in. It looks like the first constituency to declare is Sunderland Central. Traditionally, this has been a safe Labour seat, but it's been more competitive in recent years. Let's see what the numbers tell us... It appears Labour has held the seat, with an increased majority. The Labour candidate has won with 23,458 votes, compared to 13,217 for the Conservatives. That's a swing of about 7% from Conservative to Labour. Of course, it's just one result, and Sunderland is known for declaring early, but it does seem to align with the exit poll prediction of a strong Labour performance. What do you all make of this? Sophie Scott Brown It's interesting, but I'd caution against reading too much into a single result, especially from a traditionally Labour-leaning area. What I find more intriguing is the increased turnout - it seems more people voted this time compared to the last election. I wonder if that trend will continue across other constituencies. Ran That's a good point about turnout, Sophie. High turnout can sometimes indicate a desire for change, though of course, change within the system is not the same as the radical change we advocate for. It will be interesting to see if this increased engagement translates into more grassroots political activity beyond voting. Lucas Chrisad Dulu I'm particularly interested in the Conservative vote share here. If they're losing ground even in areas where they've been competitive recently, it could signal a broader shift. But as others have said, we'll need to see more results before we can draw any firm conclusions. John Bigger All valid points. As we wait for more results to come in, let's return to our earlier discussion about local organizing... John Bigger All valid points. As we wait for more results to come in, let's return to our earlier discussion about local organizing. Sophie, you expressed some skepticism about engaging with local government structures. How do you envision building alternatives at the community level without interacting with these existing institutions? Sophie Scott Brown That's a great question, John. I believe the key is to focus on building parallel structures that operate independently of state institutions. This could involve creating neighborhood assemblies, mutual aid networks, worker-owned cooperatives, and community gardens, for example. The goal is to create spaces and systems that meet people's needs directly, without relying on government support or approval. By doing so, we demonstrate that communities are capable of self-organization and don't need top-down governance. Ran I see the value in that approach, Sophie, but I wonder if it's sometimes necessary to engage with existing structures, even if just to create space for these alternatives. For instance, negotiating with local councils for access to land or resources that could then be used for community projects. Lucas Chrisad Dulu I think there's room for both approaches. We can build autonomous alternatives while also strategically engaging with local institutions when it serves our purposes. The key is to maintain our independence and not get co-opted into the system we're trying to change. John Bigger These are all really thoughtful perspectives. It's clear that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to anarchist organizing. Oh, it looks like we have another result coming in. This time it's from Newcastle upon Tyne Central, another traditionally Labour seat. The results show Labour holding the seat with an increased majority, similar to what we saw in Sunderland. The Labour candidate won with 27,568 votes to the Conservatives' 9,725. That's a swing of about 8% from Conservative to Labour. Again, it's early days, but we're seeing a pattern emerge that seems to confirm the exit poll predictions. What implications might this have for anarchist organizing if we do indeed see a significant Labour victory tonight? Sophie Scott Brown While a change in government doesn't fundamentally alter the system we're critiquing, it could change the immediate context we're operating in. A Labour government might be less openly hostile to certain forms of community organizing, which could create some breathing room for building alternatives. Ran I agree, and I think we might see increased interest in left-wing ideas more broadly. This could create opportunities for us to engage people in discussions about more radical forms of democracy and social organization. However, we need to be careful not to let electoral success in the Labour Party be seen as an end point for social change. Lucas Chrisad Dulu One thing I'm considering is how a potential Labour government might handle protests and direct action. While they might be less overtly authoritarian than the current government, we shouldn't assume they'll be allies. We need to be prepared to continue challenging state power, regardless of which party is in charge. John Bigger Those are all excellent points. It's crucial that we maintain our critical perspective and continue our work regardless of electoral outcomes. We're expecting more results to start coming in soon, particularly from some key marginal seats. While we wait, let's discuss how we can effectively communicate anarchist ideas in the context of this election... John Bigger Those are all excellent points. It's crucial that we maintain our critical perspective and continue our work regardless of electoral outcomes. We're expecting more results to start coming in soon, particularly from some key marginal seats. While we wait, let's discuss how we can effectively communicate anarchist ideas in the context of this election. How can we use this moment of heightened political engagement to introduce people to anarchist thought and practice? Sophie Scott Brown I think one effective approach is to highlight the limitations of electoral politics, even as people are excited about potential change. We can point out how many of the issues people care about - wealth inequality, climate change, social justice - require more fundamental changes than any elected government can deliver. It's also a good time to introduce people to examples of direct action and mutual aid that have made real differences in communities. We can show how grassroots organizing often achieves more tangible results than waiting for government action. Ran Building on that, I think it's important to meet people where they are. Many voters are frustrated with the current system but don't see alternatives. We can use this opportunity to introduce ideas like direct democracy, workers' self-management, and community autonomy as practical solutions to the problems they're concerned about. We should also be prepared to engage with the policies being proposed by the parties. We can offer anarchist critiques and alternatives that go beyond simply tinkering with the current system. Lucas Chrisad Dulu I agree with both Sophie and Ran. I also think it's crucial that we make our ideas accessible and relevant to people's everyday lives. Rather than getting bogged down in theoretical debates, we should focus on how anarchist principles can address the concrete issues people are facing - housing, healthcare, education, climate change, and so on. Social media and online platforms can be powerful tools for spreading these ideas, especially among younger people who might be engaging with politics for the first time. John Bigger Those are all fantastic suggestions. It's about finding that balance between critique and proposition - pointing out the flaws in the current system while also offering a positive vision of what could be. Oh, we've got some more results coming in now. It looks like we're getting numbers from some of those key marginal seats we were discussing earlier. In Bury North, which was a Conservative hold in 2019 with a majority of just 105 votes, we're seeing a Labour gain. The Labour candidate has won with a majority of over 3,000 votes. This represents a swing of about 5% from Conservative to Labour. And in Wimbledon, which has been a Conservative seat since 2005, we're seeing another Labour gain. The Labour candidate has won by a narrow margin of about 500 votes, representing a swing of around 6% from Conservative to Labour. These results seem to be confirming the trend we saw in the exit poll and the earlier declarations. It's looking increasingly likely that we're seeing a significant shift towards Labour. What do you all make of these results, and how might they impact the discussions we've been having about anarchist organizing and outreach? Sophie Scott Brown These results are certainly interesting, John. They do seem to confirm a significant shift in public opinion. However, I think it's important that we don't get caught up in the excitement of electoral change. While a Labour government might implement some policies that are less harmful than those of the Conservatives, the fundamental structures of power remain unchanged. That said, this moment of political shift could present opportunities for anarchist organizing. People may be more open to new ideas and critiques of the system when they're already thinking about political change. We should be ready to engage in these conversations and present anarchist alternatives. Ran I agree with Sophie that we shouldn't overstate the significance of this electoral shift. However, I do think these results might create a different political climate that we need to be prepared to navigate. A Labour government might be more receptive to pressure from social movements, at least initially. We should be ready to push for more radical changes while also maintaining our critique of state power. Also, if these results hold, we might see increased political engagement from people who have felt disenfranchised under the Conservative government. This could be an opportunity to introduce more people to anarchist ideas and practices. Lucas Chrisad Dulu These results are quite dramatic, especially in traditionally Conservative areas like Wimbledon. It suggests a real appetite for change among voters. While we know that change through the ballot box is limited, we can use this energy to promote more radical forms of political engagement. One thing I'm particularly interested in is how a potential Labour government might handle issues like climate change, workers' rights, and social welfare. These are areas where there might be some room for positive reforms, but also where we're likely to see the limitations of electoral politics most clearly. It could create openings for more radical organizing around these issues. John Bigger Those are all excellent points. It's clear that while we maintain our critique of the state and electoral politics, we also need to be prepared to operate in this potentially new political landscape. As we continue to watch the results come in, let's think about concrete steps we can take in the coming days and weeks. How can anarchist groups and individuals best respond to this apparent political shift? What kinds of actions or initiatives should we be planning? Sophie Scott Brown I think one key action is to ramp up our educational efforts. We should be ready with materials - perhaps pamphlets, videos, or social media campaigns - that explain anarchist perspectives on the current political situation. We need to be ready to answer questions like "What now?" and "How can we push for more radical change?" Ran Building on that, I think we should be looking to strengthen and expand our existing networks of mutual aid and community organizing. A change in government might create some breathing room for these initiatives, and we should be ready to take advantage of that. We should also be prepared to respond quickly to any policies or actions of the new government that we oppose. This might involve planning demonstrations, direct actions, or other forms of resistance. Lucas Chrisad Dulu I agree with both of those suggestions. Additionally, I think we should be looking to build coalitions with other radical groups and social movements. While we maintain our anarchist principles, there may be opportunities for strategic alliances on specific issues. We should also be thinking about how to engage with any potential reform efforts by the new government. While we know reforms are ultimately insufficient, we can use these discussions to push for more radical solutions and to highlight the limitations of state-led change. John Bigger These are all excellent ideas. It's clear that regardless of the final outcome of this election, we have work to do. Our task is to continue building alternatives, spreading anarchist ideas, and challenging oppressive systems, no matter who holds power in Westminster. We're expecting more results to come in soon, including from some key seats in Scotland and Wales. While we wait, let's discuss how anarchist principles might apply to some of the specific policy areas that have been central to this election campaign... John Bigger These are all excellent ideas. It's clear that regardless of the final outcome of this election, we have work to do. Our task is to continue building alternatives, spreading anarchist ideas, and challenging oppressive systems, no matter who holds power in Westminster. We're expecting more results to come in soon, including from some key seats in Scotland and Wales. While we wait, let's discuss how anarchist principles might apply to some of the specific policy areas that have been central to this election campaign. For instance, how would an anarchist approach differ from the major parties' proposals on issues like the cost of living crisis, the NHS, or climate change? Sophie Scott Brown When it comes to the cost of living crisis, anarchist solutions would focus on mutual aid and community self-organization rather than top-down government interventions. We'd emphasize things like community food co-ops, housing cooperatives, and local exchange systems that can help people meet their needs outside of the capitalist market. For the NHS, while we recognize the importance of universal healthcare, an anarchist approach would push for more decentralized, community-controlled health services. We'd advocate for a focus on preventative care and holistic health approaches, with decision-making power in the hands of healthcare workers and communities rather than bureaucrats or politicians. Ran On climate change, anarchist solutions would go far beyond the market-based approaches or limited regulations proposed by mainstream parties. We'd advocate for a fundamental reorganization of production and consumption, with a focus on local, sustainable systems. This might include things like community-owned renewable energy projects, regenerative agriculture, and a dramatic scaling back of unnecessary industrial production. Crucially, we'd emphasize that effective climate action requires dismantling the capitalist system that prioritizes profit over planetary health. We'd also highlight the need for direct action and community-led initiatives rather than relying on slow-moving government policies. Lucas Chrisad Dulu I agree with both Sophie and Ran. I'd add that on all these issues, anarchist approaches would emphasize direct democracy and worker self-management. Instead of relying on elected representatives to solve problems, we'd push for people to have direct control over the decisions that affect their lives. For example, in addressing the cost of living crisis, we might advocate for workers to take control of their workplaces, eliminating the profit extraction that keeps wages low. In healthcare, we'd push for healthcare workers and patients to have a direct say in how hospitals and clinics are run. John Bigger Those are all excellent points. It's clear that anarchist solutions offer a radically different approach to these issues compared to what's being proposed by the major parties. Oh, we've got some results coming in from Scotland now. In Edinburgh South West, which was an SNP hold in 2019, we're seeing a Labour gain. The Labour candidate has won with a majority of about 2,000 votes, representing a swing of around 8% from SNP to Labour. This is interesting as it suggests Labour might be making inroads in Scotland, which could have significant implications for the overall result and for the question of Scottish independence. What do you all make of this, particularly in terms of how it might affect anarchist organizing in Scotland? Sophie Scott Brown This result in Edinburgh South West is certainly interesting. It suggests that the political landscape in Scotland might be shifting. From an anarchist perspective, I think it's important to remember that whether power is held in Westminster or Holyrood, it's still a centralized state structure that we critique. However, the question of Scottish independence does present some interesting considerations for anarchists. On one hand, the break-up of larger states into smaller ones could potentially create more space for local autonomy and self-organization. On the other hand, we need to be wary of nationalist sentiments that could distract from class struggle and international solidarity. For anarchist organizing in Scotland, I think the key is to continue focusing on building autonomous, community-based alternatives regardless of the constitutional arrangement. We should be ready to engage with people who are disillusioned with both Westminster and Holyrood, offering anarchist ideas as a genuine alternative to state power in any form. Ran I agree with Sophie's points about the complexities of the independence question from an anarchist perspective. I'd add that this Labour gain in Scotland might indicate a desire for change that goes beyond the constitutional question. People might be looking for solutions to immediate material concerns like the cost of living crisis. This could present opportunities for anarchist organizing. We could use this moment to highlight how neither Westminster nor Holyrood can fully address these issues, and present our ideas for direct community action and mutual aid as practical alternatives. Lucas Chrisad Dulu Building on what Sophie and Ran have said, I think it's crucial that anarchists in Scotland (and elsewhere) don't get drawn into taking sides in the independence debate. Instead, we should be critiquing the very notion of the nation-state and promoting ideas of free association and confederation that transcend national borders. That said, the political flux that this result suggests could create openings for more radical ideas. People might be more open to questioning fundamental assumptions about how society should be organized. We should be ready to engage in these discussions and present anarchist alternatives. John Bigger Those are all thoughtful analyses. It's clear that the Scottish situation presents both challenges and opportunities for anarchist organizing. We're now starting to get results from Wales as well. In Cardiff North, which was a Conservative gain in 2019, we're seeing a Labour gain. The Labour candidate has won with a majority of about 4,000 votes, representing a swing of around 7% from Conservative to Labour. This seems to be confirming the overall trend we're seeing across the UK. As we approach the halfway point in terms of declared seats, it's looking increasingly likely that we're heading for a Labour majority government. Given this emerging picture, let's discuss how anarchists might need to adjust their strategies and tactics in the coming months and years. How might our approach need to differ under a Labour government compared to the outgoing Conservative one? Sophie Scott Brown That's an important question, John. While our fundamental critique of state power and capitalism remains the same regardless of which party is in government, the specific tactics and focuses of our organizing might need to shift. Under a Labour government, we might see less overt attacks on workers' rights or social services, which have been rallying points for resistance under the Conservatives. However, we'll need to be vigilant about the ways in which a Labour government might co-opt or neutralize social movements. We should be prepared to challenge the narrative that simply electing Labour is enough to solve society's problems. We'll need to continue pushing for more radical changes and direct community action, even if - or perhaps especially if - there's a sense of complacency among some leftists. Ran I agree with Sophie, and I'd add that we might need to be more nuanced in our critiques and messaging. Under a Conservative government, it was often easier to present a clear opposition. With Labour, we'll need to be skilled at explaining how even seemingly progressive policies fall short of real, transformative change. We should also be prepared for potential disillusionment among people who expect Labour to solve all their problems. This could create opportunities to introduce people to anarchist ideas and practices, showing how direct action and mutual aid can achieve what electoral politics cannot. Lucas Chrisad Dulu Building on those points, I think we'll need to be particularly attentive to Labour's approach to protest and dissent. While they might be less overtly authoritarian than the Conservatives, we shouldn't assume they'll be allies to social movements. We should be prepared to defend our right to protest and engage in direct action. We might also see increased interest in ideas of workplace democracy and cooperatives under a Labour government. While their vision will likely fall far short of full workers' control, we can use these discussions to promote more radical ideas about the abolition of wage labor and true economic democracy. John Bigger These are all excellent points. It's clear that while the specific challenges might change, our overall mission remains the same to promote anarchist ideas and practices, to build alternatives to state and capitalist structures, and to push for genuine, radical change. We're now seeing results come in from some key urban areas. In Manchester Withington, Labour has held the seat with an increased majority. The same is true in Bristol West. These results seem to confirm Labour's strong performance in cities and university towns. As we move into the early hours of the morning, it's becoming increasingly clear that we're likely looking at a Labour majority government. While the final numbers are still to be determined, it seems the exit poll's prediction of a significant Labour victory is being borne out. Given this, let's start thinking about the immediate future. What should be our priorities in the days and weeks following this election? How can we best position ourselves to promote anarchist ideas and practices in this new political landscape? Sophie Scott Brown I think our immediate priority should be to quickly produce and disseminate analysis of the election results from an anarchist perspective. We need to be ready with a clear message that while the government has changed, the fundamental problems of state power and capitalism remain. We should organize public meetings, both online and in person, to discuss the implications of the election and to present anarchist alternatives. This is a moment when many people will be thinking about politics, so we need to seize the opportunity to introduce them to our ideas. Another priority should be to reach out to those who might become disillusioned with the new Labour government when it fails to deliver on its promises. We should be ready to offer them a more radical vision of social change. Ran Those are great suggestions, Sophie. I'd add that we should also be looking to strengthen our existing networks of mutual aid and community organizing. With the potential for some breathing room under a Labour government, we might have opportunities to expand these initiatives. We should also be prepared to respond quickly to any of Labour's policy proposals. We need to be ready with critiques and alternative solutions that go beyond what Labour is offering. This could involve producing accessible materials explaining anarchist approaches to key issues like housing, healthcare, and climate change. Lucas Chrisad Dulu Building on those ideas, I think we should also be looking to build stronger connections with other radical groups and social movements. While maintaining our anarchist principles, there might be opportunities for strategic alliances on specific issues. We should also be thinking about how to engage with any reform efforts by the new Labour government. While we know reforms are ultimately insufficient, we can use these discussions to push for more radical solutions and to highlight the limitations of state-led change. Lastly, I think we need to be prepared for potential state repression, even under a Labour government. We should be strengthening our legal support networks and educating people about their rights when engaging in protest and direct action. John Bigger These are all excellent suggestions. It's clear that we have a lot of work ahead of us, but also potentially new opportunities to spread anarchist ideas and practices. As we're approaching the end of our watch-along, let's take a moment to reflect on what we've learned from this election process. Despite our critiques of electoral politics, what insights have we gained that might be useful for anarchist organizing? Before we wrap up, I'd like to thank Sophie, Ran, and Lucas for their insightful commentary throughout the night. And thanks to all our viewers who've stayed with us through these early hours. Remember, regardless of who sits in Westminster, the real power for change lies in our communities, in our solidarity, and in our collective action. The election may be over, but our work continues. Any final thoughts from our panelists before we sign off? Sophie Scott Brown Thank you, John. I think one key insight from this election is the clear desire for change that we've seen among voters. While we know that electoral politics can't deliver the kind of fundamental change we seek, we can tap into that energy and redirect it towards more radical forms of political engagement. This election has also highlighted the ongoing issues of wealth inequality, the climate crisis, and the strain on public services. These are all areas where anarchist solutions have a lot to offer, and we should be ready to present our ideas on these topics. Ran I agree with Sophie. I'd add that the high turnout we've seen in many areas suggests that people are engaged and concerned about the direction of society. This presents an opportunity for us to introduce anarchist ideas to a wider audience. Another insight is the power of effective communication. The major parties have been able to mobilize large numbers of people around their messages. While we reject their hierarchical methods, we can learn from their ability to connect with people's everyday concerns and articulate a vision for the future. Lucas Chrisad Dulu Building on those points, I think this election has also shown the limitations of representative democracy. Despite the apparent desire for change, the options presented to voters were still largely within the confines of the existing system. This is something we can highlight as we promote more direct forms of democracy and community self-organization. Additionally, the regional variations in voting patterns remind us of the importance of local organizing. While we reject nationalism and regionalism, we can appreciate the desire for more local control and use that to promote our ideas of decentralization and federation. John Bigger Thank you all for those insightful final comments. You've each highlighted important lessons we can take from this election process. As we conclude our watch-along, I want to emphasize to our viewers that while the election results are significant, they don't define the limits of what's possible. Real, transformative change comes from the bottom up, from our collective efforts to build a more just and free society. In the coming days and weeks, I encourage everyone to get involved in their local anarchist groups, to participate in mutual aid networks, and to continue spreading the ideas of freedom, solidarity, and direct action. Thank you all for joining us tonight. Remember, every day is an opportunity to challenge authority, to support one another, and to create the world we want to see. The ballot boxes may be closed, but the struggle for a truly free and equal society continues. Good night, and solidarity to all.
