Unfortunately I couldn't make it today due to other commitments but well done, looks like a very good effort by everyone.
T-totally controlling,using force,bribery& violence against those who oppose.
O-obnoxious SHELL trying to clean up its image.
P-pollution worldwide eg,NIGERIA.
A-always for profit,people and the environment are the casualties.
Z-zero profit for the irish people ,support the people of MAYO & IRELAND say no to Topaz.
Thank you.
More power to the new group! People may not want to know how much they've been robbed......
Well done to all involved! We need to also pressure the Greens to pull out of government, bring about elections, and maybe the new government would have the BALLS to rip up the Shell contract. It is so unbelievable that folks still can't truely understand how we can possibly be throwing away one of of best chances to fix this recession, and also take a lead on a more sustainable future.
Great work, Kildare. And glad to see one poster there saying "NATIONALISE CORRIB GAS"
The robbery/giveaway must be undone.
That was mine! Only sorry I couldnt have got on board this sooner
Congratulations on your welcome exposure of the political giveaway of the natural resources.
Well done,
It's great to sea this sort of thing. HOW DARE OUR GOVERNMENT let this major investment in jobs and infrastructure be developed in the west. Since the foundation of the state our governments have done a fantastic job in keeping Cromwell’s drams alive and refused to develop the west. Our governments have even convinced the eurocrats of the need to suppress the west, decreeing a 'special' BMW underdeveloped region.
Please keep up the protest and always remember to F**k the west.
The gardai have spouted lies about corrib protesters for a long time. They claim repeatedly that the campaign against SHell is led by Sinn Fein, Erigi, or the IRA and some people seem to believe these lies.
If the IRA was involved in this ,would it not be reasonable to assume that there would have been a lot of explosions and assaults on foriegn mercenary thugs and that traitors would have been punished. (AS they should.)
People like DECO should realise that they are being conned by Fianna Fail controlled Gardai on behalf of SHell.
The only people that wear masks in ERRIS are IRMS mercenaries,Gardai and the special branch.
The protestors are not afraid to show their faces or their identities and we welcome support from any people that are willing to help us no matter what group they belong to. Our campaign is and always has been non violent but active demonstation against corruption, the only violence has come from the state appointed thugs.
WELL DONE KILDARE. We hope that you can show the way to the rest of Ireland.
DEFY THE LIES AND VOTE NO TO LISBON. The law in Ireland only applies to ordinary people.
Kildare Sinn Féin Welcomes New Shell to Sea Group in Kildare
Following Saturdays protest outside the new Topaz petrol station in Newbridge, Kildare Sinn Féin welcomed the newly established Kildare branch of the Shell to Sea campaign. Sean Downey welcomed the protest on behalf of Sinn Féin who were present on the day commenting that “it is very important people are aware that our countries oil and gas reserves are firstly being given away virtually for free at no benefit to the people of Ireland and secondly, the reserves are estimated by our government to be worth in the region of €540 billion” he went on “let’s just hold that figure in our minds for a moment in the wake of the Bord Snip Nua recommendations for ruthless and unjust cuts targeting the most vulnerable in our society like pensioners, children and the unemployed. If nationalised or at the very least bringing the taxation levels on Shells profits into line with other European countries would provide the country with cash desperately needed to invest in health and education, alleviate the taxes, levies and cuts imposed by this inept government, most importantly it would allow us to stimulate the economy and to get people back to work”.
Lets get more protests up and running!
Well done to the folks in Kildare but was there no protest outside the Green Party's Hilton Hotel bash in Dublin the previous weekend ?
That was the gig where they got their 66 per cent on the nose, in favour of the Lisbon business, a vote, that even some hack on RTE said would "make the Iranian President blush."
Eamon Ryan said the following day on RTE that they had "not forgotten Rossport or Tara".
Those "greens" should be harried and hounded at every hands turn.
Hi Eamon,
Indeed there was a picket at the Green party Conf on Saturday 18th ... see here http://www.indymedia.ie/article/93192 and http://anarchism.pageabode.com/andrewnflood/picketing-i...rence
All the Best,

An-mhaith ar fad! Keep up the campaigning! Its great to know and see that people all over this little island are FINALLY waking up to whats happening in the west!
Most people are still unaware that Topaz is the new name for Shell in ireland, and so the boycott of Shell which was becoming stronger in Ireland has faded. The name switch was a good move for Shell, for now anyhow. If anyone has any doubts about the name switch tell them to check out the oil brands stocked by any Topaz garage. Shell Oil?
Why boycott Shell? As consumers we still have a vote in our spending,admittedly the rich have more voting/spending power but in a sham democracy where consent is so engineered as in the current vote yes campaign we have few other options other than getting independant education and making informed spending choices. If you dont know why we should perhaps make the choice to boycott then please do the research. i think you will find a good plan is buy fair trade products wherever possible and boycott the Shells and Monsantos and Nestles of this world. Bless the internet and all who sail with her.
