Jump To Comment: 3 2 1***breaking news from the solidarity camp in glengad, thursday evening***
the cable is now being connected to the winch. this cable will be brought by a barge to just outside broadhaven bay, and will then be connected to the sections of pipe laid by solitaire, and winched into the shell compound on land.
water-based activism is under way, and 7 people have been arrested. there is a large local turnout at the shell compound in response. solitaire has not left its docking point in killybegs, donegal, but rapid preparations for the world's largest pipe-laying ship have begun following a week of stagnancy at shell's compound.
the landfall of shell's pipeline appears imminent. this is the critical stage. despite what the irish navy might have you believe, the solitaire isn't welcome! if you can, make your way to glengad for the actions. if not, show your solidarity locally, and demonstrate that the government intimidating local residents and protecting multinational corporate thieves of natural resources is unacceptable. see indymedia for transport info to mayo.
In response to Rubberducky's request, here are the direction to the camp house. The new camp that has been set up is in glengad, very close to where the camp house is. Hope to see you soon.
Could you please give directions as I have heard the camp is difficult to find. Thanks.
