Kilcommon residents hand back 60 letters to RPS. Yesterday evening 40 to 50 locals from the Kilcommon parish gathered at the RPS offices in Belmullet. RPS is the company that has been employed by Shell to find a new land route for the Corrib gas pipeline. The purpose of the gathering was to return over 60 letters that RPS had sent out to various households close to the 3 remaining proposed routes, and more importantly to let RPS know that no route, which involved raw gas, would be countenanced by the vast majority of the residents of Kilcommon. The letters that were sent out by RPS let the residents know which 3 routes they deemed most suitable and also requested individual consultation with the stakeholders. |

850 signatures of opposition, 80% of locals object to the pipeline.
But Shell, RTE, the Government and the Gardaí have been telling us that the installation has the overwhelming support of the local population.
Somebody is telling porkies.
Good show, look forward to seeing any footage you may have.
"The War on Democracy" is Australian John Pilger's first major film for the cinema; in his long career, he has already produced more than 55 television documentaries.
Some related quotes:
"Whole countries have been privatised, put up for sale, their natural wealth sold for peanuts."
" 'That's just tough... like it or lump it,' remarks former CIA chief Duane Clarridge when Pilger challenges him over America's destruction of democracy and its support of state terror in the shape of dictators like Pinochet. 'In the CIA we didn't give a hoot about democracy,' shrugs Clarridge in a sobering moment where the mask finally slips."
