The press conference is currently still live so this was the best short video I could find on the topic.

To begin, I’m absolutely against this proposal, but I want to see a discussion - hopefully a constructive one - between Aussies (comments are always turned off for Australian news on YT) to gauge some idea of how people generally feel about the idea.

Fire off.

    I think you misunderstood me. The small bet I was referring to is not the coalition’s plan. It would be more money to research next generation reactors.

      @DavidDoesLemmy oh just research? I can’t see any harm in running experiments if they’re for thorium or fusion. But the real billions need to be spent now, on batteries & factories for batteries. We can be a big player exporting these … this decade! If we had the courage.
