They are building a new one up here in Cumbria, despite protest.
What I don't understand, the UK is an island, surround by the ocean, the ocean which has tides......tides known for generating electricity when you slap turbines in them.
Solar is no good, and wind turbines just stain the scenery.

What do you mean, solar is no good?
There are people living a few doors from my place who do not actually pay for electricity any more, because they have panels on their roof. And as for wind turbines, good lord, if you have a problem with those, I do not see how you can stand to see a yacht on the waves, or a plane in the sky. Turbines are no uglier than these things!

The free market?
Really? You jest, surely? We live in a nation where the more money a company has, the more of the narrative it controls. Where is the freedom in a system where the truth can be shouted down by effective and well placed lies?
Some of the stuff that is in those containers, those very old, not at all trust worthy containers, is so dangerous, and so classified, that no one other than the folks who signed it away to the bottom of a big tank somewhere, know what it is, or how radioactive it might be.
