A PROTEST march to the controversial Corrib Gas refinery in north Mayo – billed as ‘peaceful and non-confrontational’ – is already shaping up as the latest angry flashpoint between protestors and gardai.
Despite being flagged as a carnival-style ‘Solidarity Day’ by the Shell to Sea campaign, this Friday’s event would appear to have all the ingredients for further volatile exchanges over the controversial pipeline and terminal.
In a statement, the Shell to Sea group in Mayo said it was holding the ‘Solidarity Day’ on February 16 to permit people around the country to show their support for the communities of Rossport and Bellanaboy in the campaign. “Musicians are especially welcome. Stewards will be on duty to facilitate the good humour of the event,” the statement added.
But yesterday Shell to Sea spokesperson Mary Corduff confirmed the event had been timed for 7.30am – coinciding directly with the daily convoy of workers’ vehicles travelling to the refinery. She refused to rule out the possibility of those taking part deliberately walking in front of the workers’ vehicles – a tactic which has repeatedly led to physical confrontation between protestors and gardai.
Gardai have warned they will not tolerate any disturbances during the protest and will deal firmly with protesters who overstep the mark.

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.
