Shell Gas offices near Chesterfield were occupied today, while a simultaneous noise demo outside woke up Shell staff to our feelings about the multinational’s abuse of the Rossport people and their environment.
Campaigners had to use sophisticated techniques and technology to overcome the electronic door security and gain access to the building. So they found an old cardboard box and wrote the address of the office on it with felt tip. They then, cunningly, rang the doorbell and said they had a delivery, at which point the door was opened and the protesters walked in.
Meanwhile the banner was unfurled outside the building and the noise started up. What wonderful tunes the protesters played on their hooters, dustbin lids, whistles and sirens. The glorious music was so attractive that Shell staff stopped work to peer out of the windows and read the banner. So any Shell staff in the building, who had not been given a leaflet by the occupiers, certainly got the message.
After about 30 minutes the protesters took a 5 minute break to eat homemade flapjack and generally mutter about the slow response times of the local constabulary. They finally turned up with their video camera after about 45 minutes so we gave them another 15 minutes of music before heading off.
Shell should be on notice that we will are fully behind the people of Rossport in their struggle against the greedy fatcats at sHELL.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
