Today, 1 November, the early parliamentary elections will take place in Denmark. Because of its handling during the Corona pandemic, the Social Democratic-led government around head of government Mette Frederiksen came under increasing criticism. The opposition used this opportunity to attack the government and to profit from the government crisis in Denmark. For this reason, the parliamentary elections have now been brought forward. Actually, they should have taken place in June 2023.
The revolutionaries in Denmark have been carrying out an election boycott campaign under the slogan "Boycott the bourgeois elections, fight and defend yourselves! Actions were developed in different cities, especially in the working class neighbourhoods of the capital Copenhagen. For example, election posters were covered with stickers calling for a boycott of the elections. Leaflets against militarisation, the crisis and the elections were also distributed.
Here are some pictures of actions of the Danish comrades published on the website socialistiskrevolution.wordpress.com.
