category mayo | consumer issues | news report author Wednesday September 29, 2010 17:58author by RSC Report this post to the editors

Activists occupied the roof of the Shell garage at 122-156 Walworth Road, Camberwell, London, around 3pm on 25/09/10 in solidarity with the people of Rossport, County Mayo, Ireland, who are resisting Shell's destructive plans to build a pipeline through their community.

Petroseige in effect!

Activists originally occupied the roof of the Shell garage at 122-156 Walworth Road, Camberwell, London, around 3pm on 25/09/10. The occupation was in solidarity with the people of Rossport, County Mayo, Ireland, who are resisting Shell's destructive influence, and all those experiencing repression at the hands of this brutal multinational oil company.
It is also meant as a warm up action for the Crude Awakening event coming up in London on the 16th October.
On Sunday evening, he occupation the garage hit it's 24th hour. Activists called for people to head down to a Party at the Pumps!
Activists displayed numerous banners from the roof and covered up the "S" in Shell to show people who they really are!
They stopped drivers from using the pumps by blockading the entrance, puring red paint on one of the pumps and pressing the pump shut off valve.

This action follows the sabotage of pumps in Zurich, also in solidarity with the people of Rossport (http://www.indymedia.ie/article/97771).

Shell to HELL!
Shell to HELL!

The shut off valve used to stop the pumps.
