Supporters of the so-called Rossport 5 are calling on the public to boycott Shell and Statoil filling stations today.

 

The move is part of a campaign by local residents against the construction of a gas terminal and high-pressure pipeline in north Co Mayo.

 

Five of the residents have been in jail for more than three weeks for breaching an injunction ordering them not to obstruct work on the pipeline, which is being laid on their land.

 

They want Shell to build an offshore terminal rather than pumping gas directly onshore from the Corrib field.
