“The announcement follows the prime minister’s call for #tech companies to work alongside the government to build small modular reactors (#SMRs) to power energy intensive #AI #DataCentres across #Britain.
Speaking on Wednesday, Starmer vowed to “push past #nimbyism” and warned his new rural and suburban MPs that he would “break through” if there was resistance and use his party’s big majority to ensure there could be no #dissent.
The #PM said that he anticipated smaller #reactors could be built by 2032 and could become commonplace across Britain. He hinted the #government was keen to offer #consumers lower bills if they lived close to new #obtrusive nuclear construction.”
We’ll just plonk ‘em where we want
and everything will work 😅😂🤣🤣
