They show very similar instances - in the first one a police officer in New York City (Officer Patrick Pogan) assaults a protester at a critical mass bike ride, and in the second a member of the Garda Siochána (Garda Kevin O'Connor) assaults a protester at an anti-Shell protest in Mayo. There is one big difference though. read full story / add a comment

The Rossport Solidarity Camp was originally set up on ‘Rossport 5’ Philip McGrath’s land in 2005. In the Spring of 2006 the camp was set up again close to the beach at Glengad near the ‘landfall’ for Shell’s proposed pipeline. Following a mendacious but successful application by Mayo County Council for an order of eviction against the camp in September of 2007, the camp agreed to leave the dunes by January 1st 2008. Since then the 'camp' has organised from the Rossport Solidarity House in Pollathomas. On Saturday 16th August 2008 the camp was set up afresh for the purposes of reorganising Shell to Sea resistance to Shell's latest plans to construct its offshore section of the pipeline from Glengad out to the Corrib Gas Field. A number of actions against that work have already taken place and local, national and international supporters are returning to the area to continue the fight. As one supporter put it, "If there was ever a time to come to Mayo, this is it". read full story / add a comment
