1. How long would it take to get the legislation changed ? Give the recent referendum result l suspect it would take a very long time.

There is nothing in the Constitution that provides the Commonwealth with any power respect to the generation of electricity or indeed the creation and development of nuclear power. The referendum has nothing to do with it. Six months to draft the legislation, 6 months public comment. Prepare sites in the interim. 2 years start to finish big balls.

2. Once the legislation is changed how long would it take to establish a nuclear support industry similar to that of nuclear countries ? How much would all that cost ?

Why wait till the legislation is finished numbnuts. 2 years start to finish big balls.

About a one eighth of the cost to build one 650 MWh big battery plant. Which by the way we will need 1000 to keep Australia's lights on for a couple of hours, eh big balls. .

4. Once all that is done, how long would it take to build one baseload nuclear power station ?

9 years. probably less because global companies will have more plants under their belt big balls.

5. How much would that power station cost ?

$15,000 per KW big balls.

6. Where would they get the water from ?

Light water, heavy water, SMRs can use liquid metal or other coolants big balls.

7. Which council or community in Australia would host a nuclear power station ?

Parkes electorate is screaming for one. Lucas Heights, no complaints so far. Hard to state at the moment big balls due to the moratorium. lets scrap it so we can have the discussion and governments can speak up without fear of having their funding cut by our comrade in chief.

Considering that people are losing their minds at wind turbines that they can't see, how do you think you'd go building a nuke anywhere in Australia ?

We need a dozen nuclear power plants big balls. Not 100,000 wind turbines.

8. Where will you store the toxic nuclear waste and used nuclear equipment for thousands of years ?

The pellets, the size of my finger can be buried in the outback. We should also offer to take the rest of the worlds waste as well, for a 1000 year royalty fee. See, lots of counters eh big balls.

9. Who will pay for that storage and security for thousands of years ?

Other countries big balls.

10. How would that nuclear power station compete in the market with renewables when mature coal fired power stations can't in 2023 ?

Keep coal and gas operating big balls. Just like Victoria now says it will keep buying gas big balls.

11. While we're waiting multiple decades for all that to happen what we do for electricity ?

See 10 big balls.

You are so dumb dude.
