Trust the news


Nuclear clean up cost hit £73bn, was reported merely a few weeks after the government promised that 'Taxpayers will pay nothing to go nuclear'
Without expressing any opinion about nuclear energy, I still have 1uestions:

  • Will it be only future investment in nuclear that will not cost anything?
  • Will will the private companies running the facilities leave the nuclear waste in place for the time being, and bail out once they are asked to clean it, when it become too expensive -- just the way they did with the privatization of the trains?
  • Can we make official deceit illegal, punished by sending the offenders to Baghdad? It was their deceit that got us there after all.
