Bring colour,banners,flags,music,non-motorised forms of transport,imagination and energy.
The men are free,for now,but the fight for justice is only just beginning!
The bike bloc will join in the demo tomorrow at 2.00 from the Garden of Rembrance, if it wants to...
In case anyone is in any doubt, tommorow's national demonstration called by Shell to Sea is still taking place.
The people of Ireland will tomorrow celebrate on the streets of Dublin the release of the Rossport 5 and the temporary capitulation of Shell/Statoil.
We must remember though that this is only the beginning of what may turn out to be a long struggle.
We must remember that members of the present government have sold us all out by giving away our right to exploit our natural resources to a multinational.
We must remember that this government was happy to let 5 men remain in prison for nearly 100 days at the behest of Shell/Statoil and only began to work for their release on the eve of a national demonstration.
We must continue to support the people of Erris in their resistance to the pipeline and their demand that the gas be refined offshore.
Remember above all ,that direct action can change the way things operate in this country and it's up to all of us to continue the fight until Shell go to Sea.
The Rossport 5 are free this afternoon, but won't have received justice until this is achieved.
rossport 5 freed. Will the march go ahead
Just get yourself out to Cloverhill for 11.30 on Saturday. You can get the 78A bus from the quays or the Arrow out to Clondalkin station and leg it from there.
I really do hope the march is a huge success and that many thousands turn out,but I personally would like to see at least some small inckling of a different appraoch,I hear theres a bicycle ride happening that morning,that could be good,I dont have a bike myself but It shows some imagination.
In saying that we are all behind Rossport and the struggle.
Where is the march goin to?
The assembly time on the leaflets and posters is 2PM.
