We need to have more publicity and greater comunication among anti Shell groups.
I would recomend a posting on Indymedia .ie to advertise upcoming protests of this kind.
I intend travelling to London and if i had known that this protest was happening i would have liked to attend.
Thanks anyway.

These pics were brought to you courtesy of one of your friends at the London Climate Camp who asked if I and another of the Camp Documentation Team photographers would join the Shell protest so we could take pics of the event for you as it was feared there wouldn't be any photo coverage otherwise.

We may not all manage to get over to Ireland to support you in person but we do what we can and you're not forgotten amidst the mass of other issues that seem to occupy media attention.

Your struggle's an inspiration to everyone.

Photos from the Climate Camp demo as they walk from the BP offices to Shell in support of the Rossport campaign
After showing solidarity with the Tar sands campaigners at BP, the demo returned that solidarity as they joined the Rossport demo at Shell's offices in London as part of the Climate camp activities

The procession comes through Admiralty Arch as the message is taken across London. Even the Mall was closed for them.
