news report
 Saturday October 27, 2007 14:43 by Johnny H - CYM
 Today comrades from the Connolly Youth Movement and Shell To Sea participated in a successful picket of the Shell Station on Finglas road. We started the picket at 12 o’clock and began to distribute S2S leaflets to passers-by and cars entering the establishment. But the special branch had beat us to the scene with one car already parked in the petrol station which was later joined by another lot of special branch after we began our picket. Following this, a very angry manager of the petrol station came out to tell us to remove ourselves from his private property. We complied with this and carried on our picket on the public pavement but this wasn’t good enough apparently, seeing as the manager rang the gardai and a riot van of police arrived shortly after to hassle the protestors.

Excellent - too many people know almost nothing of the issues surrounding Shell in Ireland & worldwide. See yez @ Rossport!
Good stuff lads. Obviously a real threat to the state - haven't the branchers got anything else to be bothering with, like organised crime or something?
Great pic of Axl there too!
Well done to all involved. Getting the truth out there and letting people make up their own minds on the real issues is an essential part of what we are doing... and the cops are harrassing us because it's working.
Two cars and yourselves - paid for by the taxpayer and deducted from expenditure on Health, Education and Social Welfare - for what bloody purpose??!!
'Twould serve you better to hie yourselves to what you're supposed to be doing - and while you're at it start looking into Ray Burke's dodgy doings ...
Well done to all involved in picket and thanks from all down here.
Beir bua, Maura
A grand job folks, congrats; any1 who's interested/learning please come & experience what's happening in Erris on Nov 9th if you can. Bua no bas!
The real "offences against the state" are those Branch scum squandering our tax for Shell.
Two cars and yourselves - paid for by the taxpayer and deducted from expenditure on Health, Education and Social Welfare .
What about pulling sick days whilst protesting while getting paid from the department of education ????? and what can be said about the rest of the so called protestors, are they in the teaching profession or are they full time government artists ?
Shine some light please.
Your comments are positively actionable - gobdaw!
Your effectiveness is in direct proportion to the number of gardai who monitor/control you.
This shows that the protests in Rossport are very effective.
Keep it up!
