Expensive nuclear plant

jeudi 21 décembre 2017 à 01:00

The UK backed itself into a commitment to build an incredibly expensive nuclear power plant, and paying extra for power from it, apparently so as to be able to maintain an industry capable of building and operating nuclear submarines.

I wonder whether nuclear power plants built by French and Chinese engineers will have the intended effect. Maybe it will help only France and China build and operate nuclear submarines.

If they can't get the plant running by the current deadline of 2025, will that be a better outcome for Britain?

Relief supplies into Yemen

Salafi Arabia says it will allow relief supplies into Yemen for 30 days.

The plan to resume the blockade in such a short time shows that Salafi Arabia is still as cruel as ever, and that the US is still backing that cruelty.

Many renewable energy projects face cancellation as a result.

The right-wing government of Australia has been blatantly protecting fossil fuel use ever since it got in office.
