Listen "Mr Dutton's nuclear energy solution"
Episode Synopsis
Mike Holland spoke with RRR Presenter Fran Dyson with his analysis of the Federal Opposition's nuclear energy proposal on Rights, Rorts and Rants.
Mike uncovers some of the realities (including disposal of waste, workers' rights and the eye watering cost) behind builds of both small-scale and large-scale nuclear power operations overseas including the UK, USA and United Arab Emirates.
The conclusion? The Dutton nuclear proposal doesn't stack up.
The show was first broadcast on Radio Blue Mountains 89.1 FM on 22 March 2024 by Blue Mountains Unions & Community and presented by Fran Dyson. The podcast produced by Ann-Maree McEwan
