Thursday February 17, 2011 20:32 by Andrew - Dublin Shell to Sea
A decade after the process was begun to impose an experimental raw gas pipeline and refinery on the people of Erris we are entering into the final stage of the battle opposing its construction. Shell are about to attempt to lay the onshore pipe. Shell always expected this to be the most difficult part of the struggle which is why they left the attempt to build this section of pipeline till last. Dublin Shell to Sea are asking you to come to a meeting to plan how we can resist this final stage. We believe this plan can be disrupted and halted in its opening months, a campaign that will also put the enormous pressure needed on the new government to renegotiate the Great Oil & Gas Giveaway. |

Shells plans & where we are at now: Paul from Rossport Solidarity Camp
What do the local community want: Pat “The Chief” O’Donnell.
Short Question & answer session facilitated by Caoimhe from Dublin Shell to Sea
We will then move on to a group discussion of the practicalities of what we in Dublin can do to show solidarity with the struggle both here and by traveling to Erris. The point of this meeting is not for Dublin Shell to Sea to tell people what our plans are to oppose the final stage of the inland gas refinery in Mayo. It is for people who are committed to being involved in the final stage of this struggle to let us know what they can do and for us to plan together accordingly on that basis.
We, the people of Erris who can see further than the next instalment of Shell Blood Money, salute and thank each and every man and
woman who has stood with us and continues to do so. We are part of something that has confounded a machine that, if we stopped to
think about it, should scare the shit out of us. But it hasn't and it won't and I, for one, am proud to be part of something which has
transcended the usual definition of protest, and become a phenomenon which, even as we speak, is changing hearts and minds
locally, nationally and internationally in ways that even we can't fully envisage at the moment. Be proud and stand tall.
