Eoin Ó Broin, noted environmental and political campaigner, and one of the founders of the Shell to Sea campaign, has vowed to cut off his dreadlocks to raise money for the Rossport Solidarity Camp. If he reaches his target of €2,000, his hair will be publicly cut on Grafton Street in Dublin on July 29th. Eoin claims he can't remember his last haircut, and his dreadlocks represent "about six years" growth. By this drastic action he is seeking to draw attention to the fact that the Shell to Sea campaign is continuing, and the lengths that people are prepared to go to resist Shell and the Irish government's scheme to install a dangerous, high pressure gas pipeline and a huge onshore refinery in Rossport, County Mayo. People can donate money at pledgebank www.http://www.pledgebank.com/cutthedreadsoff (€10) or http://www.pledgebank.com/cutthedreads (€25) or in person at Connolly Books, the Sinn Féin Shop, Barracka Books in Cork or Charlie Byrne's Bookshop on Middle Street in Galway City. Or look out for Eoin on Grafton Street or in Temple Bar next Thursday and Friday. He'll be raising funds in person. read full story / add a comment
