Um... hate to rain on people's parades here but by picketing the petrol stations you are hindering an irish company. Topaz. which owns the petrol stations not shell themselves.

Anyway, just thought you should know.

...Photoshopped (badly)? What did the originals say? Did they run in the rain? This is really bad reportage people.

Don't look photoshopped to me.

The point about the Shell stations and Topaz has been answered on at least 2 other threads, so enough trolling. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if the IP address for this persistent nonsense trolling comes from Shell HQ.

Well done to all involved. From talking to local people in Bellanaboy on Friday there is great appreciation for the effort put in by picketers nationally and even internationally.
