  1. Challenging the given cost of Nuclear power. 2012 Hinkley £102 per MW hour / Offshore £39 (on shore even cheaper) 2. Challenging the time it takes to build safely. 12 year plus delays. 3. Distraction. Cuckoo in the nest. Pushes others out of the debate, absorbs all social capital which means other systems, more preferable, don’t get exposure. 4. Waste. We will find a solution is the view. Will we? 5. Nuclear proliferation. Ours but not yours. 6. Safe. Until goes wrong. Terrorist. 7. Employment. It's a dying industry. Why create jobs in a declining industry? 400 jobs locally 8. Load dependable and needed. Myth. General capacity 90GW. Peak 53GW. Average 20-30 GW. 9. Use of land. Massive. Not just another little dome - it's over hectars.
