Shell to Sea went among the crowds attending the All-Ireland Semi Final between Waterford and Cork today, asking for donations and giving out leaflets, information on the campaign, and the ubiquitous Shell to Sea stickers.

The response amongst the sports fans was overwhelmingly positive, and the large amnounts of money raised will go towards more leaflets, protests and public meetings in the future.

Latest reports sugges that Shell will attempt to start building work at their proposed refinery site Bellinaboy at the end of thiis month or iin early September, using the confusion sown by their recent announcement that they are to "re-route" the pipeline to give them an advantage over the resistance networks around the country who will be trying to galvanise protests against them.

This means that Shell to Sea have a month to alert the public that the "re-route" is an empty public relations exercise, and the root of the problem, like the route of the pipeline, hasn't changed. ... read full story / add a comment

"Sin City," ? only when Ahern and coven come to Galway for the races and a serious outbreak of brown envelopery consequently emanates from the Ballybrit "Hospitality Tent" which can only be controlled by CAB?.

"Sin City"," nah !, 'cos sometimes, in moments of weakness, Galway is referred to as the New Jerusalem,? true.

Besides the odd bi-pedal weasel, the overwhelming public response to our daily protest outside Lynch's castle in Shop street, engenders more and more of the same,so, tomorrow and Saturday, we'll be at it again.

At the High Court on Monday 31st July, members of Bantry Concerned Action Group were about to issue proceedings under section 160 of the Planning Act against the ESB, arguing that the powerline proposed in Bantry is currently an unauthorised development.

The proceedings were providing a welcome respite for protesters to so far have successfully blocked the ESB from continuing work along the route of the powerline. Farmers along the route assisted by members from the Solidarity Camp had successfully blocked numerous efforts by the ESB to off-load poles, bring diggers on-site etc. The exercise, according to the ESB, cost them €15,000 each day, with virtually no results for all their efforts. At time of writing, all machinery and equipment has been removed from the area.
