We need power and until they come up with something better I can't see what else we can do. Green power is all very well but I'm not sure we can produce all we need that way (although I may be wrong).

I'm not sure I'm happy about the Japanese building three of these in the uk? It seems their own people have given them a big fat no. So we get them. I realise they will be the latest generation of nuclear reactors, but can we be sure that absolute safety will be built in? I know they will provide jobs, but is the economy the be all and end all?

I wonder.
