GXO Strategies Director Cameron Milner says “good policy” is not always good politics as the push for nuclear power runs with the danger of Labor’s “fear campaign” against it.
“Unfortunately, good policy is not necessarily good politics,” he told Sky News host Andrew Bolt.
“I don’t think anyone wants to live next to a coal-fired baseload power station, or a hospital, or a waste facility either.
“There is plenty of places you could put nuclear power in Australia.
“The danger is the fear campaign Labor will run.”

Labor are intellectual primates.
Liberal have no intention of doing that, they know it's a snow job, but people will fall for it. It was brought up in the 90s by One Nation, but oh no, don't listen to them.
Labour lies as easily as it breathes ably assisted by its propaganda wing the ABC.
Stop arguing and build it 🥱
FFS, Australia is lame 😂😂😂
As usual Labor offers only FUD. Typical of Elmer. Pun intended.
It should come as no surprise whatsoever to learn of the ALP (Labor) socialist left government"s attempt to run a scare campaign regarding the implementation of nuclear generated electricity. Their campaign is pure political dogma and has zero to do with efficient and effective policy
This rates as hypocrisy plus from a prime minister who has frequently stated his intentions are to reduce the cost of living (electricity).
Labor have to use fear because they don't posses/can't use logic 😊
Labors Nuclear fearmongering doesn't work on me 😂☢️☢️
Im in the Regions and We just Want CHEAP POWER. Ive SEEN CROPS Growing next to Nuclear power Plants. You Can PAY ME and Put ONE in MY Paddock!

Simple fact, Nuclear is better than solar or wind, less damage to the environment. Nuclear is based on 17th century technology to generate power.
Labor hypocrites, we sell yellow cake around the world but punish Australia. FYI where do you think radiology and nuclear medicine and cancer treatment comes from, yep nuclear plant in Sydney
Where do you think x-ray comes from, where do you think nuclear medicine comes from or cancer treatment, yep nuclear
NEGATIVE LABOR ON NUCLEAR POWER STATION MEANS THAT YOU PAY EVEN MORE POWER .
It's not just a matter of lifting the ban, it's also dealing with the activists and the lawfare that will accompany it.
God is the almighty!
nuclear will allow power to stay at the low levels needed to reduce bills, solar and wind by the very nature of their varibility allow prices to regularly spike at peak demand times to 16000 a megawatt hour nuclear will remove this and their little scam with price gouging , plus all the back-up that has to kick in when the sun goes down or the wind stops
Keep our high grade coal for coking steel manufacturing needed when china and other third world countries wont produce the quality manufacturing we want
This debate belongs to Michael here.
After this mob get kicked out, bring back coal fired plants. They have shown how inept they are.
Labors principal argument against nuclear is the cost. Simple google Hinkley point C see for yourself. £31-35 billion. Built by French and British engineers on ready site. Google Hitachi Anglesea £20 billion just to decommission and clean up site after 40 years of use. These are just two massive expenditures. LNP lied about snowy 2.0 $10 billion over budgett. This is Labors objection to nuclear in Australia.
