Reports on Evian from a good bus eye view…

The good bus started as an idea to get autonomous activists from Ireland to the G8 in Evian, not just to take part in blockades & demonstrations but also to actively be involved in planning them, & to be able to evaluate these actions afterwards. A bus was just one idea of how to get to Evian. The bus never materialised. A diverse collective of individuals prepared to take action against the nasty corporate elements that fuck up our world did. In all the good bus trip lasted 15 days. We plan to put on some workshops sharing our experiences from this trip in various locations around Ireland, & at the Grassroots Gathering in Dublin in June. You can check out more photos & reports from the Annemasse camps, No Border Action Geneve, Lausanne Blockades & the Bourdonnette Camp Siege, on the daaa website.
