Well done Pat, you're an absolute inspiration. I'm sorry I couldn't make it up to the celebrations when your seven months finally came to an end. I'm infuriated by the injustice done to you but also hopeful that with the help of people like you wrongs can (eventually) be made right.
And to anyone who hasn't yet seen 'The Pipe' documentary, make it a priority on your list of 'worthwhile, inspirational documentaries to watch'...it's just fantastic.
Solidarity and support being sent to Pat and all the Shell to Sea gang from Galway.

Like the Rossport 5 'The Chief' and Niall suffer for their desire to get to the truth. Government in Ireland (and most of the world) is no longer about truth, the constitution or serving the people, it is about serving corrupt interests of the elite and the corporations.
While people remain disunited and focus on individual or smaller issues such as animal cruelty, job losses, deportations etc. which are all symptomatic of a corrupt system we fail to address the root cause of all these issues - the complete failure of government as a system that is intended to serve and protect the people. Only a concerted effort by all concerned people will bring about a change at the highest level - ending the corrupt system so that the individual issues may be then dealt with.
The current format of piecemeal protest and resistance is akin to running around with a fly swatter while ignoring the stinking bucket of dung in the middle of the room that is causing the problem!
