Poland cut illegal immigration from Belarus by 98% after building a 116-mile border wall ? and now Donald Tusk's Government is adding a minefield. Turns out robust clampdown on illegal entry is okay if it's from Russia.

Audio from Mayo Trespass 21st July 2007

category mayo | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Saturday July 21, 2007 17:53author by w. Report this post to the editors

Interviews with Mayo locals, including Maura Harrington, John Monaghan, Vincent McGrath and Willie Cofduff. Audio recorded before, during and after the mass trespass on the refinery site. Ends with sounds of the jubilant 'trespassers' exiting through the main gate. Loud booms can be heard as people drummed on the fence in celebration.

Despite constantly updating their fences Shell seem to be unable to keep control of their site, they might do well to remember the words of the Zapatista 2nd declaration;

"For struggling for a better world all of us are fenced in, threatened with death. The fence is reproduced globally. In every continent, every city, every rural area, every house, Power's fence of war closes in on the rebels whom humanity always thanks.

But fences are broken. In every house, in every rural area, in every city, in every state, in every country, on every continent the rebels, that the history of humanity repeats along its entire course to assure itself of hope, struggle and the fence shakes.

The rebels search each other out. They walk towards one another. They find each other and together break other fences. In the rural areas and cities, in the states, in the nations, on the continents, the rebels begin to recognise themselves, to know themselves to be equal and different. They continue on their fatiguing walk, walking as it is now necessary to walk, that is to say, struggling!"
