but don't take that to mean you can't criticise the esf - its a process that's meant to involve all and hasn't.
and just for your information the autononmous spaces and other events organised alongside have always been valued by the esf over the last 2 years, even if they were critical.
this year its is a bit different cos the autonomous spaces did not ask the esf to pay for their venues etc like has happened in france or italy - so don't come criticising like that unless you have an actual point to make :-)
ps if you look at the autonomous spaces website and call you will see it clearly written that they welcome and value the energy and experiences of all those who will be attending the esf.
