The continuing dangers of Britain's nuclear folly, Sellafield, were brought home to Dubliners on a sunny Saturday afternoon by a 'Nuclear Meltdown Drill' organised by Globalise Resistance. The scenario was simple - imagine that a major nuclear accident has happened, and that it's time to put the much-discussed emergency plan into effect. The event started outside the Central Bank, where the model of Sellafield started to self-destruct, followed by an evacuation through Grafton Street, the heat of the city's shopping district, followed by a mass 'die-in' on the street and a protest outside the Dáil (parliament). The event, which had been in planning for over a month, was covered by a large group of Indymedia reporters, who produced a selection of images, audio, and video. |
