For over 12 years, the local community in Mayo have been resisting Shell's
plans to force through a high pressure raw gas pipeline and inland
refinery. Local people have gone through all possible channels to fight
the project.

Let down by the Government; many have been beaten, imprisoned and feel
under siege by the security and police. However people continue to protest
in order to protect their families, livelihoods and resources. Currently
Shell are attempting to tunnel under an EU protected estuary with their
tunnel boring machine but they are experiencing major construction
problems.

Stories from the 12 year campaign and info about the Rossport Solidarity
Camp WEEK OF ACTION 21st-30th June 2013.
