Proceeding contribution from Paul Flynn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 16 July 2009. It occurred during Topical debate on Copenhagen Climate Change Conference.


Copenhagen Climate Change Conference

I accept that entirely. I am in a party that said in 2005 that nuclear was an unattractive option. It remains an unattractive option, and apart from the intensive lobbying that has been applied to both main parties I cannot think of anything that has changed. Nothing has changed, and we have a further example to mock the policy. In Finland, the new nuclear power station, and the prototype of what we will have in this country, is three years late. It was supposed to be generating electricity this year.
