Two protesters stop work at Shell project for 11 hours

TWO protestors managed to stop work at the Corrib Gas project for 11 hours by locking themselves together in front of the gates preventing vehicles from entering the site.

The two men, members of the Rossport Solidarity Camp, bound their arms together with a heavy arm tube. One of them also locked his neck to the gate using a “D-lock” bicycle chain.

Their action started at 7am and only ended shortly after 6pm after they were arrested by gardaí.
