In another famous win for the little guys, Australia has resoundingly rejected Nuclear!
This was more than just the vibe, this was categorically the Worst idea in Australia's Political History & has deservedly been thrown into the bin as well as those who proposed it.

Western Capitalist Democracies aren't going Nuclear because the Economics don't stack up. In fact, those already with Nuclear have very minimal activity, mostly building 30-60 years ago because the economics have progressively gotten worse, while renewables keep dropping in price

If there's 1 issue worth swaying your vote this election Nuclear should be it.
Nuclear doesn't stack up now, let alone considering the forever burden it is on future Aussies.
It's a forever debt with no energy or economic payback because the inputs are endless.

In one last spit in the face to Democracy, Dutton, so ashamed of his unpopular Policies sneaks through his Environmental DOGE cuts in at the 11th hour, on Friday evening, the night before the election, after 10+% of Aussie have already voted. ๐คฎ๐คฎ

& perhaps this was the only direction it could go, when the most Far-Right Major Party Leader in modern history is proposing ideas like Nuclear that even LNP members have dubbed Socialist

On 2 subjects he has no idea about, the Cost of Living & Nuclear, his costings are way off!
Nuclear is a more costly mistake, 1 of the most risky & expensive plans in Aus history, costing Aussie Tax Payers $600B, raising bills & damaging the economy by approx $4.3T

As Scientists confirm the average American now has 1 plastic spoon equivalent of micro-plastic in their brains, we should be, as a matter of urgency, ending the creation of long-term & forever toxic & harmful chemicals
There's nothing Clean or Green about Nuclear Toxic Waste

Mr. Dutton has been ruthless, endlessly attacking his own ideas from the week before
The Opposition plans to remain in Opposition but Opposes himself as Opposition Leader in their future Opposition to Labor
It's a Nuclear-free zone, his yuge idea turned Toxic โข๏ธ

Vested interests are circling & it's not good for the average Aussie, who flips the $600B bill, bears the risks, watches our Country bled dry, pays higher bills & deals with 20K+ years of Toxic Nuclear Waste

Peter Dutton thought Nuclear Power works by burning Uranium. No wonder they've gone silent on Nuclear!
This is the most Anti-Science Political Leader in modern Australian History, planning to deliver the most complex, risky & expensive plan in our history.

Toxic Nuclear Waste = 20,000+ years
Uranium Mining
2B Tonnes of CO2
Disasters like Chernobyl, leading to cancers, diseases & genetic mutations & now a 155K km2 Exclusion Zone for 10K+ years
Water Consumption
Energy to store Nuclear Toxic Waste, more than it ever produced

NUCLEAR HAS A WATER PROBLEM! ๐ฆ
Choosing the Thirstiest Power on the Driest Habitable Continent in a Warming Planet is a Recipe for Unreliability and Disaster.
To make matters worse, 6 of the 7 proposed Nuclear Sites are inland
Nuclear will suck the Country dry.

Surely Australians deserve some answers and details about the riskiest and most expensive proposal in our modern history. We are paying for it afterall and the risks are all ours.
But Peter Dutton has gone missing once again, as he did during the Cyclone. ๐ฌ

How long will Uranium Reserves last?
90 Years at current consumption (10% of global electricity production)
So much for Nuclear is the Future
So if Nuclear expanded, as championed, say 1%/year to be 3-fold by 2045, our Nuclear Plants would run out of Uranium in 16 years๐คฆโโ๏ธ

Luckily, the PM who proposed this terrible idea was replaced & a cost analysis in 1971, found that nuclear was, like now, far more expensive than alternatives & the project was shelved
Unfortunately, for us, we no longer have an LNP Leader who cares about cost analysis ๐คฎ

Nuclear isn't a Business, it's a liability & Debt
France's Nuclear Operator, EDF, amassed a whopping US$102.87B debt before the French Government had to bail them out
If Nuclear runs at a debt while producing, imagine the debt we're leaving future generations who gained nothing

There's a well established link between exposure to ionizing radiation from Nuclear & Cancers, Disease and DNA damage, which can lead to mutations. Adolescents & children, particularly under 5 years old are particularly vulnerable. Those within 30km of Plants are at greatest risk

RIP the fiscally responsible Liberal Party.
Liberals Against Nuclear are right in saying "The current proposal to build nuclear power in Australia fundamentally contradicts core Liberal values of lower debt, smaller government, free markets, and less government intervention."

The energy payback period of Nuclear to cover construction is 10-18 yrs alone, but Nuclear has endless inputs like Uranium & Water so keeps taking. Storing Nuclear Waste for 10,000+ years will likely use more energy than it ever produced. It is a debt with no comparison

This is Strange on both fronts - That a wannabe PM would so Blatantly Lie to Aussies & a Pro-Nuclear Page would celebrate the lie of a few Million % & that creating 30M+ Cans of Cancerous Toxic Waste is some sort of Engineering achievement worth marvelling at.

Dutton's either taking Aussies for idiots or he's the idiot (and there is no plan); either way there's absolutely no sign in sight that he's going to reveal a slither of details about his Nuclear 'Plan'
It's hard to recall this level of disrespect for Aussies!
