At last some good news with the signing of this deal between the British and French for the build of theses new nuclear power station.Last June, ministers announced plans for the next generation of UK nuclear plants.
There are plans to build a new nuclear power plant at Sellafield in Cumbria
The government confirmed a list of eight sites it deems suitable for new power stations by 2025, all of which are adjacent to existing nuclear sites.
The sites are: Bradwell, Essex; Hartlepool; Heysham, Lancashire; Hinkley Point, Somerset; Oldbury, Gloucestershire; Sellafield, Cumbria; Sizewell, Suffolk; and Wylfa, Anglesey.the will produce a lot of work for us lads and there is a promise that to start with they will only take labour from the local areas, the station down our way is Hinkley point and it has reported that 75% of the labour will come from Somerset.All the sites are still at the planning stage ,but the government would not be so open about this deal if they did not intend to give planning. there will be lots of opposition to all the sites, and the treeehuggers have already started up a tent village next to the proposed site at Hinkley point. but at long last there should be plenty of jobs generated and some decent money earnt. And hopefully with no ripping off agencies or a in flux of eastern Europeans who cant even read the direction on the gate let alone the site safety rules.
