Belcoo was awoken at 5 in the morning on the July 21st to the invasion of Tamboran. Since then we've seen mass mobilization of the local communities; holding public meetings most nights. A constant presence has been maintained at the gates to let Tamboran know we're here, and we're not going away. A marquee has been erected opposite the gate with a rocket stove providing endless cups of tea and hot food for all those who have come from near and far to show they're opposition to this ludicrous project. |

Those pics are delightful - for Tamboran!
Hindsight IS 20/20 so will ye for God's sake learn from the resistance to Shell in north Mayo.
Very simple -
There are two approaches - (i) happy clappy
(ii) down and dirty
Less of (i) and more of (ii) is what's needed at initial stage because believe you me, give those *** a toehold and you're making life very, very difficult for yourself - plus providing an excuse for more 'Golden Mile' overtime for cops who've also been there, done that, with impunity.
Only ONE rule - don't get caught!!
Give it jip - it's you or them - just make sure it's you NOW!
The following excerpts come from the United Nations texts on "The Aarhus Convention Agreement":
"It links environmental rights and human rights";
"It establishes that sustainable development can be achieved only through the involvement of all stakeholders";
"It links government accountability and environmental protection";
"It acknowledges that we owe an obligation to future generations";
"The subject of the Aarhus Convention goes to the heart of the relationship between people and governments ."
