Notts sends Shell to hell

Following the one hour blockade of a Shell petrol station on one side of Nottingham the 25 cyclists took a leisurely ride across town to the next Shell station and blockaded that for another hour. Stickers were liberally applied and info leaflets attached to the pumps.

Running out of Shell stations we rode up to the market square where many people who congregate there on a Saturday appreciated the arrival of the sound system and an impromptu party ensued. The banner was unfurled and many more leaflets given out. Many passers by came to speak to us to find out what the protest was about, others came up helped themselves to placards while and characters in fancy dress collecting for the NSPCC joined in and held up the large banner for us.

A pretty successful day with over 400 leaflets distributed. Nottingham is now much better informed about Shell’s disgusting behaviour and plans in Mayo.

It was widely agreed that this was so effective we should do it again.

Oh, and BBC television came and filmed and an item was broadcast on BBC Nottingham TV on Saturday pm.

To all our friends in Rossport and Mayo we say– Shell WILL be sent to hell.

Bringing the pipeline back to London

03.03.2008 23:29


GLUAISEACHT are mobilising people from all over Ireland to travel to London this St.Patrick's weekend to "return the pipeline to Shell!"
We are bringing a 70ft pipeline to Shell H.Q. on St Patrick's day to protest against the give away and mismanagement of our natural resources and to show our solidarity with the Shell to Sea campaign.
Buses will leave from Limerick and Dublin on Friday 14th of March and meet at the Dail at 5pm to protest at our government's complicity in the Corrib gas project.
From there we will embark on a weekend of actions in London highlighting the corrupt deal our government has done with Shell and the destruction of a area of extreme
natural beauty. The weekend will culminate in a protest at shell H.Q. on St Patrick's Day where we "return the pipeline".
We feel there is a good opportunity on St Patrick's weekend when there is so much good will towards Ireland to draw international attention to what is going on in
Mayo.
If you want to join us, get in touch,. or see you there.
