Five arrested at sit-down protest against Corrib project  :: latest 

Gardaí in Co Mayo have arrested five people following a sit-down protest against the Corrib Gas project this morning.

Fire fighters had to separate Shell to Sea demonstrators who locked themselves together shortly before 8am at a Bord na Mona facility where peat from the terminal site is being deposited.

They prevented lorries from entering the facility for more than four hours.

Shell to Sea says the protest was designed to frustrate the removal of peat and to put the issue of the Corrib gas project back on the public agenda.
