A very innovative action by Shell to Sea. The Norwegian parade was led by the Garda band at a fast beat and the end of the Norwegian group and between Shell to Sea probably the bandsmen's vans which omniously looked like White Marias! There was a large enough group of ordinary Norwegians to share the message with.
Here's a report from a London Rising Tider with a single Shell share, who went into its Annual General Meeting, while others stayed outside to leaflet shareholders and passers-by. The main meeting took place in The Hague, with a video feed to London, or the Novotel Hammersmith, to be precise.

the article is based on the story in the irish examiner
The cops wouldn't let us get too close to the Norwegian Ambassador, so we paused for a group photograph.
When the speeches were over, the sergeant came over to tell us we we welcome to leaflet and mingle with the crowd.
After that, we just had to get the pipeline home...
There was special reception hosted by the Norwegian Ambassador for May 17th at Belvedere Rugby Club in the heart of Dublin 4.
Guess who were there to meet the guests, and remind them of Norway's part in the exploitation of Ireland's natural resources, and the scheme to install a dangerous, unsafe pipeline trhough a residential area?
It's a very anal comment I know, but 17th of May celebrates the signing of the Norwegian constitution at Eidsvoll this day in 1814, not independence at claimed in your article. Full independence was gained 8th June 1905.
May 17th is Constitution Day, but it seems often celebrated as Norwegian Day, or simply 17th May. Since the end of the Second World War there's been a half-hearted attempt to tie in May 17th as a commemoration of the Norwegian struggle under German occupation in those years too, but it seems that the day is usually seen as a straight-forward celebration of being Norwegian.
