A protest involving around 50 bare-bottomed activists spilled onto Sydney streets yesterday, stalling an APEC motorcade and triggering scuffles with police.
The Bums for Bush campaign was hailed a success by organisers, even though drizzling rain kept many protesters away from the mooning anti-Bush protest.
Around 50 people lined up at Hyde Park's north end and mooned an audience of several hundred people, including supporters and media.

Protesters, carrying placards reading "Sign Kyoto, you wankers", cheered and clapped, chanting "Bush, Howard, USA, how many kids did you kill today?"
At the Bums for Bush protest, organiser Will Saunders said while the protest did not approach the mooning world record - 2,000 people, or 4,000 cheeks - it was enjoyed by all.
"Just because you feel strongly about an issue doesn't mean you can't laugh about it," Mr Saunders said. "There's many ways of making a point, (this is) the Australian way."
