De Facto: The Rossport five face jail

Today (Wed) in the High Court five men from Mayo face possible jail sentences because they are in contempt of court. They broke the law to seek justice. The order of committal is being sought by Shell over the Corrib gas project.

The five men are Rossport landowners and part-time farmers, Willie Corduff, Phillip McGrath and Brendan Philbin; Rossport resident and musician Vincent Mc Grath and Ceathrú Thaidhg resident and retired teacher, Mícheál Ó Seighin.

The five are accused of contempt because they ignored a High Court injunction prohibiting them from interfering with Shell seeking access to lands in Rossport. Shell is also seeking a High Court injunction today preventing people from denying vehicular access to a Shell compound in Rossport. Around mid-day on Tuesday of last week (June 21) a stand-off began (and is continuing) between local drivers and a compound-bound lorry on the read full story / add a comment

The company claimed that it was acting in accordance with its principle of respecting local laws. In this pilgrim's opinion this is really and truely disgusting, on a par with the western firms who have provided the technology for sealing off the Chinese web from the free internet?. read full story / add a comment

Shell International with the cooperation of the Irish Government, the Courts and the Judicial System are attempting to bully the people of Rossport, Co Mayo off their land, ignoring their rights and wishes, and having little or no regard for safety regulations, planning law and environmental concerns. This, in an effort to build an extremely dangerous pipeline close to their houses, to extract gas and oil from the Corrib Gas field, once a national asset but now the property of private multinationals, thanks to an extraordinary deal done with ex -minister Ray Burke, since convicted and sent to prison for corruption. read full story / add a comment
