Up to twenty éirígí activists took part in the pickets outside of the Shell station on the N81 Tallaght bypass and in Beaumont on Dublins northside. Both protests, which began shortly after 7pm, lasted for 90mins. During that time very few motorists entered either station with many indicating support for the pickets. éirígí are asking republicans and socialists from all over Ireland to make their way to Ballinaboy, Co Mayo on November 9th to demonstrate against the giveaway of Ireland's oil and gas reserves.

The Day of Protest begins at 8am in Ballinaboy on Nov 9

Fair play to all concerned. Campaign against Shell seems to be gathering strength. Roll on November the 9th.

Don't forget, this year at Bellanaboy we are remembering not only the first anniversary of the baton charge of peaceful protestors, but more importantly marking the 12th anniversary of the execution (for Shell) of the Ogoni Nine, including writer Ken Saro-Wiwa.

The horror show that is the Corrib gas project and the traitorous giveaway of Irish natural resources must be put to an end, and days like this give people a chance to show how wrong the government has been on these issues.

Bring some raingear, a drink and a snack, but in respect for those who gave everything for a similar cause, bring a cool head above all else.

See you on the 9th...

Life is just unfair and that's it.


"A living thing seeks above all to discharge its strength — life itself is will to power"

"Today the taste of the time and the virtue of the time weakens and thins down the will; nothing is as timely as weakness of the will”

Solid work as always,lets hope we give em a clear message on the ninth that time will not wither away at our convictions on this one.
Its too important for everyone in this country for that.
Maybe,over time,the cynics on this page will realise that too.
Solidarity!
