Boris Johnson makes nuclear power plant pledge: "We need to pull our national finger out"



Boris Johnson has given the green light to the Sizewell C nuclear power plant in Suffolk by promising £700m of government funding for the project.

Mr Johnson said his government’s “British energy security strategy” was “rectifying the chronic mistakes of the past and taking the long term decisions that it needs”, adding: “We need to pull our national finger out and get on with Sizewell C.”

  1. Has the research discovered designing such facilities as that of a bomb shelter to be sufficient means of sustaining the entire infrastructure without the added risk of a war zone attack or an environmental catastrophe of destroyed soil, because the notion of the world become liken to a radioactive wasteland is not the future, or at that it doesn't have to be, as in what kind of future is in it, if it were?? Hopefully the development is smart double or triple layered/insulated. Safety, global security of importance.

  2. Renewables suck !! Renewables are nothing but a scam . Invest in nuclear yes. Now the time to cancel all those government incentives . The big failure of renewables. Unreliable and totally dependent on Natural Gas . Germany should never replaced those nuclear plants . With unreliable renewables that are totally dependent on natural gas plants. This Recession could have been avoided. Get those power plants funded and approved ASAP

  4. Important move nuclear power is the modern technological solution for climate, environment and energy independenc here in Europe. I think he sincerely wishes the best for your country. Demonized topic. Do remember that the Tohoku tsunami wave killed 15 000 people and at the same time in Fukushima nuclear power plant accident/malfunction nobody died and nobody even got radiation sickness.
