Gordon Brown is to face down sceptics in his party and give the go-

They'll only be built if electricity generation companies want to build nukes.

but will need a lot of political uncertainty removed,

LMAO ! As if ! They're politicians. Their word is less than worthless.


and also a clear indication of future prices of carbon.

How do you propose to find that ?

which at the moment is stacked in favour of gas fired power stations.

Still ?
