After EDO, George Bush this Sunday, London?

PROTEST BUSH VIST - Parliament Square, Sunday 15th June, 5pm.
George Bush is coming to London and a protest site has been announced by Stop The War Coalition. Although not a thrilling action, possible momentum from the great demo at Edo in Brighton last week could make something more direct happen on the streets of London.

Ignoring the history and pathetic nature of StW Coalition, it seems like a good opportunity to hit the streets and try to realise some collective disobedience the likes of which have not been seen for ages until last weeks fun and games at the very recent Smash EDO protest.
It's noticeable that Indymedia have hardly covered this visit by Bush which seems to suggest that people just aren't interested. Fair enough, the StWC don't inspire much do they? However, we never have to let them dictate what we do. Previous Bush visits had an element of spontaneous street fun by random elements in the mass. Who knows?
See you there? Maybe I will!
