Gaslighting again- easy to say Sizewell C is on time & budget when you refuse to reveal what the cost & timescale will be. If all is well why no FID? Ps Pyke knows- the RAB #nuclear tax will put electricity bills up from start of build! #SayNo2SizewellC www.eadt.co.uk/news/2493077...

If you want to know why your electricity bill is so high look no further than the bad decisions of governments to prioritise expensive dirty nuclear power stations over reductions in peak time use. www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/opinion...

The government can reach its 2030 clean power target whilst lowering the average household electricity bill by more than £200. 💰☀️ How? By implementing the policy reforms in our Electricity Bills Charter. 📖 See our proposals below. 🧵👇 www.e3g.org/publications...

It's a great cause, but be under no illusion, "The nuclear plant [Sizewell C] about to take shape near Leiston has donated £20k towards the effort" has actually donated nothing! It is spending taxpayers £££'s! #SayNo2SizewellC www.eadt.co.uk/news/2486832...

"The arguments against new #nuclear power plants have never been stronger...we now have the govt’s own energy operator saying that not only is new nuclear not needed to decarbonise the grid, but it will increase the cost of electricity to households." scottishleftreview.scot/why-labour-s...

Same EPR reactor design Keir Starmer & Ed_Miliband want to build at Sizewell C- no wonder investors are so hard to find Olkiluoto 3: "completed a staggering 14yrs behind schedule, with expenses ballooning well beyond initial estimates" #SayNo2SizewellC Rachel Reeves nord.news/en/2024/12/1...

Yeah, I've co-written two books to argue the case for #nuclear #energy, even demonstrated for it, but the reality is this. With the unexpectedly rapid advance of RE technologies, I really don't see much of a future for nuclear electricity in deregulated markets. It's just not a good investment.

Why do NHS hospitals ask you to phone them on a number that is never answered?

Great blog from @jonathonporritt "I blame both Tony Blair– a critical part of the whole deep nuclear state working away behind the scenes– as well as UK’s astonishingly gullible media which just goes along with all this nuclear crap, year after year after year" jonathonporritt.com/tony-blair-n...

And then your next train is delayed, and when it eventually departs, instead of picking up time, it gets even later!

Greater Anglia services out of Liverpool Street all running slow. (No change there?) Of course they don't tell you in advance. Delay-repay forms at the ready!!
