APPEAL FOR INTERNATIONAL SOLIDARITYGlobalise Resistance- NUCLEAR MELTDOWN EVACUATION DRILL OF DUBLIN!

Globalise Resistance-EVACUATION DRILL OF DUBLIN!

APPEAL FOR ALL BRITISH GROUPS TO COME TO DUBLIN IN SOLIDARITY AGAINST SELLAFIELD

What happens when Sellafield melts down, Minister
Jacob?
Prop making, costume making, theatrical rehearsal in NCAD- Meltdown, evacuation drill and Die IN in front of minister's office- 3pm March 9th




Globalise Resistance in Dublin has brought together lots of ideas for building the anti-globalisation movement in Ireland.A big issue in Ireland is the threat that the Sellafield Nuclear power plant poses for people and the environment here.

Our plan is to run a "nuclear meltdown drill".
We will assemble at 3pm at the Central Bank where
speakers will explain the threat of Sellafield and
then at a co-ordinated moment "nuclear wardens" in
overalls and masks will come into the crowd with
sirens and horns in a trial-run nuclear meltdown
scenario – everyone will have half an hour to escape!

We will be building a Sellafield reactor core for the meltdown drill, and are asking anyone who knows anything about flares, coloured smoke, theatrical primal screaming, the uniforms of the Ministry of Disasters and the Civil Offence, gasmasks, sound systems, fake newspaper headlines and articles a la Orson Welles for the day, nuclear body shadows, horror make up, blood capsules, burned clothes,
mutations ETC ETC ETC to help bring materials, paints, props ETC ETC

Everyone on the demo will be given emergency plans
which will tell you what to do in the event of a
nuclear fall out from Sellafield:
Get to the Fianna Fail headquarters within half an
hour and protest (or after half an hour has passed,have a die in…?)
Wardens will get everyone running to mount streetraising the alarm on the way.
Lots of other details to be worked out but that's theidea…

We will challenge Joe Jacob (Irish minister for disasters) through the media
beforehand to be there at the drill with his alternative emergency plan!
Also, we plan to put outlines of dead bodies all over the streets of Dublin the night before the protest to show the scale of the carnage that would happen.
We had provisionally decided to have the demo on March 9th
