"I'm here, at the end of eight years activism, because this is the place where I began getting interested in the diabolical proposal which Shell has for the place. We are damned if we are going to adopt the 'cop it and lie down' attitude which is expected of us – in other words, 'not to say anything, not to do anything'. What has brought me to this, is that because Broadhaven Bay is such a special place, it is worth fighting for, and, if necessary, it's worth dying for."

Make Some NOIZE!
In my prior experience, an outside-their-offices protest is boosted greatly by being a noize-demo: not only will the Allseas UK management find 105dB of angry protesters difficult to ignore, but all the folk in their offices, surrounding workplaces and in the street will wonder what's going down – and are likely to support us when they come to investigate what the racket is all about. So I recommend bringing noise makers:
saucepan / frying pan – plus metal spoons with which to strike 'em – clang!
whistles – keep 'em after Carnival, the louder the better – wheeeeep!
horns – Carnival stylee, air horns, french horns, conch shells, etc., &c. – toot!
percussion – bells, tambourines, rhythm sticks, DIY improvisations – ding, bish, CRACK!
drums – from one-handed to big bass strap-ons, so to speak – rattle & BOOM!
instruments – brass, woodwind, strings, theramins, {insert your instrument here} – parp, tweet, sching, whoooo, {noize}!
guitars – if you're a performer / protest singer, let's hear you / join in – kerr-ang, tra-la!

Bring as many noize-making goodies as you can, and we can share them around on the day, so we've all got the means of noize-production in our hands / mouths.

I'll be shooting photos and video clips for publication on IndyMedia UK and IE, so the noize we make will be heard far and wide, to uplift hunger striker Maura Harrington and the Rossport Solidarity Campers, and hopefully inspire future Solidarity Actions the world over.

If you cannot get to the protest tomorrow (and even if you can), here's a Solidarity Action in which we can all participate from the comfort of our very own armchairs:
____________________________________________________________________________
Ring up / Email the Solitaire – Tell Them to Leave Irish Waters!
Right this minute – on-going
Sun 14 Sep 08 – 14:09 by FSB! - Rossport Solidarity Camp - Shell to Sea

"Let that ship and its owners know your disgust at its continuing presence!

The Shell to Sea campaign is requesting that people phone and email the Solitaire and its owners Allseas Group SA to let the ship's captain and crew, and that company know that its continuing presence in Irish waters is unwelcome and that continuing to delay its eventual departure is forcing Maura Harrington to continue her hunger strike. Shell to Sea is asking people to demand that Allseas Group SA unambiguously and publicly announce the Solitaire's imminent departure from Irish waters not to return this year.

Allseas' & Solitaire's contact numbers and emails are in the main body text."

Get Inspired – Feel Informed

If you feel you may need some motivation to boost you into joining these two Solidarity Actions, I heartily recommend taking a look at some background info on the courageous struggle by our sisters and brothers in Ireland to stuff a potato up the pipe of Shell's attempt to increase fossil fuel greenhouse gas emissions in the Emerald Isle:

Maura Harrington Hunger Strike Videos
