For the first time since the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986, a radiation plume from a crippled nuclear power station has been detected over the British isles.

monitoring stations in Glasgow and Oxford are now measuring only the "minutest traces" of one radionuclide, iodine-131, from the plume released by the Fukushima plant's ailing reactors and spent fuel ponds. It stresses that the levels of the substance in the air people inhale are way below background levels.

Lets just hope it doesn't cause the problems with our farmland like Chernobyl did...

Yeah I was reading about this today, it's a bit worrying, however, I don't understand how no other Country on the way from Japan has reported this? Surely it's not just jumped from Japan to Glasgow!

if this is being relised in mainstream news like the bbc then just think what they are holding back!

It's been detected all through the USA from the west to east coast.

Oh yeah, sorry forgot about that! I was wondering why no one in Europe has mentioned it, but now that I think about it, it would have to go past UK to get to the rest of Europe, I had the other direction in mind ...
