How Times Change (part 38)

Click on the above heading to link to the BBC news story "Labour conference backs nuclear" "Hunterston B is scheduled to close in 2011 Delegates at Labour's Scottish conference in Aviemore have endorsed a resolution backing the replacement or renewal of nuclear power stations. The Amicus engineering union, who had called for the move, said it should be part of a balanced energy policy. Labour's coalition deal with the Lib Dems in Scotland states new nuclear power stations will not be built before the issue of waste is dealt with. " New Labour, eh? Crikey, if we're not careful they'll be introducing National Identity Cards and illegally declaring war on foreign countries next. Just exactly what is 'a balanced energy policy'. Is that where only one of your testicles is irradiated with plutonium? Or where only half your family have more than one head?
