Belfast Telegraph: Shell campaigners hold protests in Erris and Dublin

Friday, October 12, 2007

Campaigners against the Shell refinery being built in Co Mayo are holding protests today in Erris and Dublin.

Local activists from Co Mayo have asked people from across the country to travel to Erris to highlight their ongoing opposition to the scheme.

Dublin supporters, meanwhile, plan to target the offices of the Department of Natural Resources.

Regular protests against the Shell pipeline and refinery have been taking place for more than a year, with critics saying the facility poses an unacceptable safety threat.

They are also angry that the Government signed over a vast amount of Ireland’s natural gas resources to Shell without claiming any royalties for the State.
