Thursday July 28, 2011 15:49 by j debender - Rossport Solidarity Camp Aughoose, between Pullathomas and Bellanaboy 085 114 1170
Even after the roadblock was cleared, protesters kept delaying every tractor delivery On Wednesday 27th July two people locked their arms into a concrete barrel or 'lock-on,' blocking the road between Shell's Bellanaboy refinery and the tunnelling compound in Aughoose. This stretch of road has been the focus of the protests this week with protesters on bikes and on foot blocking tractors in addition to the tripods and lock-ons. Wednesday's lock-on lasted almost 8 hours- from 7am to 3pm- during which time no tractors or trucks were able to bring anything from the refinery into the compound at Aughoose. |
