Labor changes tack tonight, and tomorrow announces they are going fully on-board with SMR nuclear reactors...
Fully, no going back.

Now, they just have to pick locations.

Which one of you wants it in your suburb? Or which Lib MP will stick his hand up to have one (of the 30+ needed)?

You like living next to unproven, first of its kind nuclear power? Spose you are OK with drinking recycled sewage water in Sydney, right?

Let's see you really squirm when the Libs have to publish their map of planned locations.

Next, assuming they just put them where they want to...

How long until the first one is operational?
Best estimates are 12yrs, if they can get it made.

That puts us at 2035, for one. A little one.

In 12yrs worth of development, we can probably do better with existing proven tech.
