The Labour Party Ed Miliband Rachel Reeves Jenny Riddell-Carpenter MP Nuclear power? No thanks! #stopsizewellc

.Ed Miliband didn't mention #SizewellC today but he made a quip about the Tories believing in state ownership of energy - but FOREIGN state ownership. Errm does that mean he wants French state-owned EDF 🇬🇧 and the UAE's state-owned Emirates Nuclear out of SizewellC? #StopSizewellC

Guess Rachel Reeves didn't want to mention #SizewellC in her speech in case someone pointed out that the £5.5 bn in savings she found in July is the exact amount she and colleagues might bung the beleaguered white elephant? Bonkers #StopSizewellC bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Staggering timelines: This piece says #HinkleyB #nuclear plant's decommissioning could take 95 years. On this basis #SizewellC - which officials tell us they assume it would operate until 2098 - would not be decommissioned until 2193. #StopSizewellC bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Clear? Not very: "opponents Qs if investors will put £ into [#SizewellC]. PM insisted the[y] would. “When you talk to investors, whether #nuclear or anything else, they say conditions are stability, certainty & strategic thinking from govt' #StopSizewellC bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Total devastation 😡 #StopSizewellC

Familiar to anyone living in East Suffolk. Jobs, freebies, greenwashing - no substitute for massive destruction. #stopsizewellc SASES.ORG.UK RSPB Minsmere 🌍 @SuffolkWildlifeTrust

"'Expansion of #solar energy will make #nuclear power obsolete and push it out of the electricity market by the 2030s, making financial support for nuclear a waste of money.' #StopSizewellC montelnews.com/news/1aa921fb-…

You couldn't make it up. Rachel Reeves saved £5.5bn in 2024/25 in her mini budget, end of July (main losers =pensioners). Coincidentally £5.5bn is also the amount of taxpayers' money that could be bunged at #SizewellC, BEFORE a Final Investment Decision! Madness! #StopSizewellC

"who better to proselytise for #nuclear than former UK PM who wanted Britain to build a new reactor every year? ....days before he left office Johnson approved #SizewellC, much to the delight of Adnani, who welcomed it on Twitter" #StopSizewellC prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/67818…

Rachel Reeves So overturn Kwarteng's overriding of the Planning Inspectorate's decision to refuse permission for #SizewellC, #StopSizewellC and save £8bn immmediately

Clive Lewis MP Jenny Riddell-Carpenter MP Adrian Ramsay £8bn being thrown at #SizewellC at a time of cutbacks - #StopSizewellC #WinterFuelAllowance BBC Radio 4 Today

Jenny Riddell-Carpenter MP please don't support #SizewellC - £8billion of our money could be saved immediately if it was cancelled. Kwarteng's overriding of the Planning Inspectorate's decision to refuse permission will cost us all dear - in many ways. #WinterFuelAllowance #StopSizewellC

No new nuclear The Labour Party Ed Miliband BBC Radio 4 PM - astronomical build cost ignores massive radioactive waste storage problem and cost, not to mention dangers. #StopSizewellC now! Jenny Riddell-Carpenter MP

Stop Sizewell C If there was a perfect analogy for ‘the elephant in the room’ its nuclear waste with its ability to destroy life for a thousand years or more! At Sellafield Britain’s only storage facility historic waste is left to decay without even records of its origin! #stopSizewellC

The Beeb writes: "#Sellafield is filling up - and experts say we have no choice but to find somewhere new to keep this [#nuclearwaste] safe." But we DO have a choice not to make any more #StopSizewellC bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

"Uranium is the raw ingredient for the enriched uranium needed to fuel nuclear reactors. Just days before leaving office, Johnson announced a £700m investment in the controversial Sizewell C reactor." #StopSizewellC Stop Sizewell C Together Against Sizewell C (TASC)

😡"Four persons were exposed short-term to high radiation dose rates during repair work carried out on hoist equipment at the #Olkiluoto3 plant unit in June 2024. The exposure incident occurred during the lifting of a dummy fuel element." #StopSizewellC tvo.fi/en/index/news/…

Now we know why Boris Johnson's Prime Ministerial swansong was an exhortation to "go #nuclear and go large". Plain self interest. Surely there must be consequences for his failure to declare he met his new associate's #uranium company as PM? #StopSizewellC theguardian.com/politics/artic…

We were told this was a private visit - just an excuse for it being conducted in secret and no engagement with communities. As for the hope it will be built on time and budget, and help us get to net zero "as soon as we possibly can" (2030 is the target) Dream on! #StopSizewellC
