Great Private Eye article: "The British coast might not (yet) face tsunamis but, on past & present nuclear regulators' own analyses, adopting the pre-Fukushima Japanese model & deliberately blurring the boundaries between regulators, industry & Whitehall cheerleaders looks unnecessarily risky"

Despite the uncertainty whether a GDF will ever get built this government plans to make more radioactive waste. In the case of yet to be built Sizewell C its 3900 tonnes of spent fuel will be left languishing on one of Europe's fastest eroding coastlines!

Good news - VAT to be cut from electricity bills. Now cancel the Sizewell C nuclear tax. Despite all the hype and £££s spent, nuclear construction is yet to start. Tell Andy & Miatta £bns saved by cancelling Sizewell C could be far better spent. See 👇 mailchi.mp/ce0d605a0534...

A welcome initiative given the destruction caused by Sizewell C & other energy NSIPs:- East Suffolk are consulting on their Tree & Hedgerow Strategy- the aim is to ensure the right trees are established in the right places, delivering lasting benefits 👇 www.eastsuffolk.gov.uk/engagements/...

"...Our demand for water tankers fluctuates & we have an average of twelve deliveries a day" Sizewell C also said, "In the second half of 2026 our potable/freshwater demand will be supplied by our on-site temporary desalination plant..." Well, how is that going? Late & over budget by any chance? 3/3

Sizewell C's planned changes at the LEEIE, Leiston include building a huge cut & bend steelworks factory & increased use of the Saxmundham-Leiston railway line. TASC consider these changes will have a material impact on local people & businesses See TASC's response tasizewellc.org.uk/wp-content/u...

No surprise residents & visitors choose to avoid 'Leiston's changing landscape [much in AONB] due to Sizewell C works' "Much more destruction of agricultural land & habitat today than there was for the previous 2 power stations when they were built in the 60s & 90s" www.eadt.co.uk/news/2622532...

Sizewell C nicely summed up by Private Eye: "Some heroic assumptions and skewed arrangements for shouldering the, er, sizeable financial risks in building Sizewell C nuclear reactor threaten to land the taxpayer with another hugely expensive duff deal..."

It's time government recognises the financial damage Sizewell C is causing & compensate fairly "They [Sizewell C] said it would bring people to the town. They don't come into town - they have got no reason to. They don't live here. They work here & at the end of the week they go back [home]"

RSPB's Beccy Speight said: “My message to the Prime Minister and his team is this: ‘Get on with the things the UK public overwhelmingly want to see – nature’s decline isn’t inevitable; it’s a political choice. But the time to make the right choice is running out fast’." rspb.org.uk/whats-happen...

On 18th April, TASC is taking part in the National Day of Action to send a message to govt that people everywhere care deeply about the natural world & want to see it protected & restored. To mark the occasion, we have kindly been given permission.... See tasizewellc.org.uk/wp-content/u...

More weasel words from Labour The best & most cost effective way to a healthy environment is to protect the species & habitats we already have Yet Labour devastate our natural world with its agenda of deregulation, 'build baby build' & growth at any cost to the environment www.gov.uk/government/n...

It's no surprise Sizewell C is negatively impacting local businesses, "It's not just us, it's every business that relies on the [tourism] trade." And it's clear Sizewell C doesn't "have an understanding of the local area"-as Sizewell C's workforce increases, tourists are forced to go elsewhere

Sad news - our appeal regarding Sizewell C’s secret sea defences has been refused. However, the legal challenge has helped to expose that the project, as approved in the DCO, is not resilient to a credible maximum climate change scenario See TASC's PR👇 tasizewellc.org.uk/appeal-court...

Well said Chris Hinchcliffe, Labour MP who opposes watering down the nature rules: “The recommendations we have highlighted as being of concern would take us back to the ‘cash to trash’ approach” No-one voted for Labour to trash our environment & our wildlife www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

...been kept secret yet recent storm damage proves erosion & flooding threats are real & immediate. We need a full, public assessment of these defences now to guarantee that the plant & its 3,900 tonnes of spent fuel remain safe from extreme sea-level rise till the late 2100s 2/2
