Blair's nuclear dream

Tony Blair came out in favour of nuclear power today despite widespread opposition.
"Oil and gas are running out," he said, "and alternatives like wind and solar power simply do not do enough damage to the environment."
He pointed out that nuclear power is comparatively clean in normal circumstances but said: "It will only take one major cock-up for nuclear power to do far more impressive environmental damage than oil has ever achieved."
Proprietor of electricity generating company Man-MountainoGen Mr Gapi Aire said he was delighted with Mr Blair's comments. "I have all these uranium rods in my garden shed I haven't known what to do with."
