Blockade of Shell site, Mayo

category mayo | miscellaneous | news report author Monday January 28, 2008 16:14author by No consent Report this post to the editors

Blockade of Shell site, thurs morning, 24/1/8, approx 100 cars blocked for 45 mins

Shell site blockaded
This morning, local residents’ yet again braved the bitterly cold wind to show Shell that it will never have their consent. Knowing that only they can protect the health and safety of their community and environment, people peacefully held banners at the gates, shutting down the site and preventing approx. 100 Shell cars from entering. There were no Gardai for approx. 45 mins!
Yesterday, people were stood by the side of gate 2, not blocking the cars, but were forcibly removed by the Gardai, who refused to give a reason. As usual, there was disagreement between the Gardai themselves on why we were being removed and some were clearly uncomfortable with their colleagues’ unreasonable behaviour (‘public order act’ ‘Trespass’ ‘miscellaneous housing act’ and my personal favourite, ‘you are causing a destruction’). The morning pickets are still happening and there are frequent blockades, so come and support the Kilcommon Parish who are simply calling for the gas to be refined at sea and to renegotiate the deal to benefit the people of Ireland. Shell to Sea!
Who’s cops?
It came as no surprise to see the recent Shell Project Monitoring Committee praising Supt Gannon for his work in the locality.

This morning a number of locals gathered at 7am at the worker's gate to hold banners. They were joined by 2 Garda vans, 2 squad cars and the unmarked car! the words 'overkill' spring to mind. One person was roughly handled by Gardai as he tried to video the cops pushing locals and misusing the law once again.
