The Nuclear Reactor blog Peter Dutton DOESN’T WANT you to read…Uk sites that are operational - Holy Glowing Nuke Batman!
The news about new reactors isn’t great with all of the most recent ones going over budget MASSIVELY and ALL going well over schedule. But little is ever mentioned about the ones IN service. We look at the UK’s main reactors and it isn’t pretty unless you like your NUKEs with issues like leaks, cracks, corrosion and a whole host of REAL problems. “They won’t take about it but we WILL:
A quick check of history shows that cost overruns and delays are not restricted to new builds, indeed these following sites have had WORRYINGLY issues all the way
This ruins the pro-nuclear peeps day
Dungeness B - Hartlepool - Heysham 1 - Heysham 2 - Hinkley Point B - Hunterston B - Torness - Sizewell B

Someone recently posted on X about Finland's electricity being cheap because of NUCLEAR. He shouldn't have. The post left out, conveniently for the NUKE lovers, that the TAXPAYER subsidises the cost - i.e. The taxpayer pays the government to give itself a discount so that the NUKE business can make a profit - Call it creative accounting OR a very dumb public.
Now think what the LIBERALS under #PeterDutton's fantasy will do to YOU.
Anyway, it reminded us of an article about the last NUKE Finland deployed, and it's a familiar story, do read on... Read More...
Peter Dutton’s Nuclear Promise - It’s a sideshow

Peter Dutton’s Nuclear Prom
ise - It’s a sideshowGiven tomorrow (14/05/2024) is #budget day and #PeterDutton promised "details" on his nuclear plan, we can fairly assume we are not going to get them by the time the budget is released tomorrow. Ok, we already know he won't as he's fudged the date again, sometime in the future.
Even so, we are left wondering WHY Peter Dutton posted a transcript of his interview with #DavidSpeers on #Insider on 21/04/2024 which in part dealt with #NuclearEnergy. It's a master class in deflections, why why did he publish it?
It's over 4,000 words so we felt it needed a summary, and trust us, it won't surprise.

Peter Dutton's #SMR Nuclear Plans are the #VAPORWARE of Energy Security
Ladies and gentlemen, step right up to witness the latest act in the grand political circus: Peter Dutton's miraculous #SMR nuclear plans! Touted as the saviour of Australia's energy woes, this plan is less about securing our energy future and more akin to hawking digital snake oil in the desert. Prepare to be dazzled, or bamboozled, by what can only be described as the vaporware of energy security. Read More...

Peter Dutton's nuclear nightmare just blew out
Hinkley - C blows out again: March 2024 - Dutton’s dream is over
Oh boy, folks, strap in because the saga of Hinkley-C, our favourite financial black hole, just took another dive into the wallet-weeping world of "Why did we think this was a good idea?" territory. If you thought our last gab on the glow-stick fiesta that is Hinkley-C was a hoot, with Peter Dutton tucking his nuclear dreams away into the world's most over-engineered lunchbox, you're in for a treat. Because, dear readers, Hinkley has blown its top again, and not in a fun way. Read More...
The Hidden Costs of Nuclear Power: Cybersecurity Threats and Financial Risks at Sellafield
10/03/24 14:56 Filed in: Nuclear | Peter Dutton
The UK's most hazardous nuclear site, #Sellafield, has been hacked by cyber groups linked to Russia and #China.
#PeterDutton will shit himself when he finds out:
Fark, Dutt's hates China but loves #Nuclear and this latest FAIL in #NuclearPower is gonna make his uphill battle to push the nukes on us:
You may not have heard of "Sellafield" that's because they changed its name, from #Windscale. We don't know why they changed the name but we suspect it was to try and improve its public image because the world nuclear dustbin didn't have a good history - It's a lemon, a glow-in-the-dark lemon, a poisonous glow-in-the-dark lemon, it's a bit of a shitter.
