A polly on the wireless this morning spoke about Bangladesh firing up its first nuclear reactor later this year and suggested that, if they can do it, it would be a doddle for us.
He neglected to mention that the power plant was first proposed in the 1960s, confirmed in 2007, and a US2bn contract to build it was signed with Russia in 2010. The actual cost is closer to US13bn, much of that subject to a loan from Russia.
I dread to think of the cost blowouts if our governments embarked on a nuclear power plant construction program.
