Rossport Solidarity Action At Irish Consulate national |

news report
 Wednesday September 24, 2008 18:29 by westside - westside!
 for maura Whilst the solitaire is in for repairs, we'd thought we'd remind the government that activists haven't taken their eye off the ball. We also thought we would dedicate this action to Maura. About 12 climate activists from the Westside (thats south wales, bristol & bath) occupied the irish consulate in cardiff for an hour or two today (wednesday 24th sept). About 5 got into the reception and altered the decorations, and demanded to see the consul, who wasn't at home (to us anyway). Meanwhile, outside a banner previously used on the welsh pipeline campaign was held on the steps of the consulate, ignoring the ridiculously irate security chief :"calm down mate, we are only holding a banner". Most staff from the building happily took leaflets. |

Great stuff, thanks a mill.
Fair play to yiz,lets keep the pressure on!
Well done, it all spreads the shameful story of the dirty deal by Irish Gov't.
The diplomats really hate this kind of pressure and embarassment and they will feed it back to the Irish government. Keep up the good work!
