Paddy´s Day of Action Against Shell

Since 2000 the rural community of Rossport, County Mayo, Ireland have been engaged in a battle to prevent Shell, from building a potentially devastating toxic onshore gas refinery and high pressure pipeline in their remote and environmentally sensitive region.


People from all over Ireland are set to join forces and show their united strength by going all the way to London to demonstrate on shell´s front door step.


Gluaiseacht, the Irish environmental network organising the trip, are calling for people to join them at the shell head office in London, or there is also a call out to take solidarity actions at shell garages and offices, St Paddy´s day parades and Irish embassies all over the world to coincide with the visit from 15th-17th March.

I cant make it down to london but would like to show some solidarity. is there anyone out there that would like to accompany me on a forecourt come monday to hand out a few flyers? also not sure what time would be best but thinking lunchtime maybe? or afternoon/evening.
