Hopefully other political newspapers will follow the lead of Sinn Féin's weekly paper and feature articles on this issue.

If you are thinking that SHell will bring wealth to Mayo, find out how they've conducted business in other parts the world, notably Ogoniland in Nigeria & Kurdish lands in Turkey.
