And Hinkley Point was such a roaring success, let's pour more money down the bottomless barrel!

It's an obvious distraction pushing the topic of nuclear power again, just days after they prepared to open massive new oil and gas production sites while stifling the well-going UK wind industry.

But there are enough people out there brain-washed by decades of anti-renewable propaganda that it will work. And in the end we have just another country failing to build the proper amount of nuclear base load AND the proper amount of renewables... but at least someone smart "thought ahead" and worked for enough fossil fuels to compensate.

The conservatives just operate on the assumption that everybody else doesn't have a clue what's going on because they don't.

I bet they were told that the nuclear commission were going to open another power plant and just ignored them and gave out the oil drilling contracts anyway.
