      *most expensive place to develop any sort of infrastructure, surely.

      Not surprised at all by the findings in this though..

      Paying peanuts to get cheaper nuclear energy doesn’t seem like a winning recipe to me.

      Hopefully this will change now. The process seems to be speeding up. Sizewell C will be based on Hinkley Point C. SMRs can (potentially) make production much cheaper too

      The UK has amongst the most expensive power – of all types – globally. This means industry is globally uncompetitive. Households pay too much for heat and light. Also, AI won’t happen here.

      That is historically a failure of the last Tory administration.

      Labour has announced small, modular reactors made by Rolls Royce that will cost a fraction of the current large reactors.

      Crippled by corruption, NIMBYism, Environmental protest, pointless time and cash wasting consultations about pointless crap.

      Good job we’re the fifth richest country with opportunity to invest in infrastructure for the future in a rapidly changing world.
