Galway : Rock Solid Support for the Rossport Five.

category galway | crime and justice | news report author Thursday June 30, 2005 19:07author by Dunlo Tom - Shell to Sea Report this post to the editors

9 dead in Nigeria, 5 jailed in Ireland, what else is in your pipeline, Shell ?

Outraged by yesterday's obscene jailing of the Rossport Five, Galway activists, their number greatly augmented by the Congolese and African community, picketed the dockland oil depot/offices of Shell Oil today.

The fiery Padraig Cambell inspired us with his no bollocks address, winkled out a hard hat Shell honcho from his, well, shell, to deliver a note of protest and, to boot, led a contingent of activists to the nearby Constituency Clinic of Eamon O' Cuiv to remind him of his duty towards his Gaeltacht brothers and sisters.

This coming Monday, at 10.30 AM, activists are urged to protest outside the Constituency Clinic (beside the Royal Rock Cafe, Ballybane Industrial Estate) of state minister, Frank Fahey.
Open up or Padraig's gonna huff 'n puff and blow yer rotten house down !

This is a peaceful assembly, so, take off yer riot gear, alright.

The long arm of protest is about to collar O 'Cuiv.

The bugger cheated us by shinning down a ladder and heading off to the deep cover of Cornamona.

Today (08/07/05) My wife and I cancelled our heating oil account with Shell. We did this to show our support for the Rossport 5. If possible we will travel to the disputed site and protest there as well. I would urge anyone reading this to do the same. It could be you next. Shame on the politicans for allowing this to happen. Note to anyone organising any protest please inform local radio and tv stations in the north so as we know what is happening .

Supporters of rossport 5 who read this site around country can themselves contact local radio stations papers etc with info they think is important.

It's time for the great Irish impulse of youthitude to stand up with their old fart parents and say Enough is enuf! Enough to Shell! Rappier of Africa! Polutter of the vorld. How dare you to do this to the sons and daughters of James Connolly~ before now and hereafter!

Orrah!
