The New York Times Bestseller list is "pure propaganda", says Elon Musk. The newspaper even admitted in court it is "editorial content", not factual. But what about the Sunday Times version? Steven Tucker investigates.

Urgent Call Out: Mayo Needs You!

category mayo | environment | news report author Tuesday August 12, 2008 20:05author by stop shellauthor email rossportsolidaritycamp at gmail dot com Report this post to the editors

NOW IS THE TIME

During the next 2 weeks, the Solitaire (the biggest pipe laying ship in the world) is set to begin illegally constructing the offshore section of the pipeline. It is believed that the Solitaire is on a pretty tight schedule & booked up for the next 2 years, so ANY disruption provides us with a real opportunity to delay the project significantly.

Our community are determined to resist Shell...but we need your help!
Although local resistance has been ongoing, the Gardai and a hired security force have meant it is incredibly difficult. A few weeks ago 13 people were arrested in Glengad (1 man remains in hospital). However the Gardai are now just escorting people from the site and not arresting people.

Therefore there is a real need for clever actions to help delay current construction at the landfall area in Glengad and the planned offshore pipe laying. We are calling for your assistance at this time.

It is expected that once the off-shore pipe laying is done, there will be another quiet period for several months before construction is due on the onshore section possibly next spring or summer, so now is the time to come.
If you cannot come over please do what you can from home ...contact the media, politicians, picket Shell HQ etc
