1PM - Solidarity Protest at Shell's Irish HQ, 53 Lwr Leeson Street, Dublin 2

There will be a protest against what is currently happening in Mayo on Wednesday October 4th at 1PM, outside the headquarters of Shell Exploitation Ireland Ltd, 53 Lwr Leeson Street, Dublin 2 (just around the corner from the Department of Marine and Natural Resources) on the corner of Adelaide Road.

Protesters are being injured as they are beaten off the road in Mayo. It's important to let those people who work for Shell in Dublin know that their company's behaviour is considered lamentable.

Bring flags, whistles, posters, banners, stuff to make noise. If anyone has a loudhailer please bring it along too!

Shell Exploitation and Production Ireland Ltd (SEPIL), 52 Lwr Leeson St (at the corner of Adelaide Road).

Hundreds of Gardaí are currently in Erris using force to get contractors through the Shell to Sea picket line at the Ballinaboy refinery site.

Shell to Sea wants -

the gas from the Corrib field to be processed safely offshore;

the profits from the sale of the gas to benefit the people of Ireland;

an end to the attempts to criminalise those who protest against Shell.
