View Article  Western People (Ireland): Work to resume next month on gas project (*more Shell double-talk)
“The one thing I will say is that they are once again causing a contradiction. On the one hand they are saying they will work to find an agreed pipeline route. At the same time they are announcing that works are going to take place in Bellanaboy before any agreement has been reached. Once again it shows that their under-standing of the term ‘agreement’ is pretty poor. They are pre-judging the outcome,” he remarked.   more »
