Ógra Shinn Féin Protest Statoil Offices

category national | rights, freedoms and repression | press release author Tuesday January 22, 2008 17:18author by Shell 2 Hell - Ógra Shinn Féinauthor email osfnational at yahoo dot ie Report this post to the editors

Last Sunday in solidarity with the people of Rossport, Ógra Shinn Féin held a protest outside the offices of Statoil Ireland in Dublin. The protest was to highlight the continue involvement of Statoil, a Norwegian state industry, in the theft of Irish natural resources and endangerment of the Rossport community, through dirty deals with Shell and the 26 county government.

Activists handed out leaflets on Statoil's complicity and the campaign to save our natural resources. Police presence was high, with a number of Gardaí and at least two special branch cars. Activists refused to be intimidated and even left a few reminders on the walls of the headquarters.

Ciarán Fitzgerald of Ógra Átha Cliath had this to say:

"Statoil along with Shell backed up by Fianna Fáil, the Greens and the Gardaí, are taking what is rightfully the property of the Irish people and lining their own pockets while endangering local communities. We must continue and step up the campaign against this theft."

A National Protest will be held in Bellanaboy on Friday 1st of February for more information please call +353871323369

All areas should have a presence or hold a solidarity picket.
