Now Shell have applied for planning for their 'new' pipeline route, we must act swiftly to oppose it at every stage. Everyone can make submissions! This entire project has been the cause of untold misery, strife and unhappiness for our families and community. We will continue to resist Shell through every legal, political and campaigning means open to us, even though this could lead to more years of unnecessary conflict. Please support us!

Nothing has changed since the Rossport 5 were imprisoned and this proposed route still literally cuts through the heart of our community. It exposes not just the people of Rossport but the people of the entire parish of Kilcommon to unprecedented and unacceptable risk. We need resolution and agreement, not the forced imposition on an unwilling community of an unwanted and unsafe project.
