Good article in Irish Times today. Not much has changed since the Rossport 5 were imprisoned 4 years ago, except that now the Kilcommon community are more determined than ever to say 'no raw gas, refine at sea'! Support them before it's too late. A Victory for Shell to Sea is a victory for the people of Ireland.
Unite to fight the raw gas pipe. Support the community in Mayo.
