Confronting the UK’s Democratic Crisis.

On 18 November 2023, over 700 people gathered for an all-day conference on ‘The Breakup of Britain?’ in Edinburgh’s Assembly Rooms. They filled the main hall and gallery. The conference was a salute to the late Tom Nairn (1932-2023). It debated how to resolve Britain’s democratic crisis. Politicians, scholars, journalists, writers and poets from all four UK nations as well as speakers from Europe participated. The event was live-streamed by Indie Live, where over 4,200 logged in, and on openDemocracy, where 2,700 did.

“…too often the pre-publicity of similar events has promised much more than the actual substance delivered on the day. This was a happy exception.”
