The struggle last year At the end of July 2008 13 people were arrested on the public beach as Glenagad for demanding to see Shell’s permission to start construction work on the beach. Shell responded by importing dozens of private security and state police onto the beach and sealing a large section of this public beach off with fences. In August as serious construction got underway a further 8 people were arrested as they entered the water to try and halt construction. During this protest a giant Shell digger dumped a huge quantity of material almost on top of one of the people in the water showing a complete disregard for their safety. Meanwhile at sea a Shell boat was harassing local fishermen who were continuing to work in the bay. In September the worlds largest pipe laying ship, the Solitaire, arrived in Broadhaven bay. We interviewed Cormac, a WSM member who was in Erris waiting for the ships arrival and took part in Rossport Solidarity protests in Dublin. Something mysterous happened to the Solitaire in Broadhaven bay, during the night the pipe laying 'stinger' became badly damaged with a large section falling into the bay and having to be later recovered. The Solitaire was forced to retreat and comstruction halted for the months that followed.
