Shell targeted as part of Mayday actions in Brighton

This mayday bank holiday saw a huge anti-militarist demo in brighton, aimed at the EDO/ITT arms company. As hundreds of protestors were in the streets of Brighton, the opportunity was taken to also send a message to Shell at their local garage 'Shell out of Rossport!'.
Shell returned to Glengad with fences and machinery on Wednesday 22nd April, with force and violence. Since then there have been a number of attempts at removing the fences and stopping the work, with a mixture of failure and success. Numbers are needed now in Glengad to support the campaign and kick shell out! For more information on the campaign, check out http://www.corribsos.com and indymedia ireland.
