I strongly object to the building of nuclear power station Sizewell C on the following grounds. The down side costs are too huge to contemplate , particularly the pollution caused by construction inc traffic congestion,dust, noise, and light pollution; the destruction of wildlife habitat; the adverse effects on the important tourist industry of this area and the as yet unsolved problem of what to do with the highly toxic radioactive waste. The 'jobs bonus' is a red herring, put that amount of investment in almost any other large scale project including green energy generation and more jobs will be created. Or try using the money to insulate thousands of homes so less energy needed in the first place. Plus the outrageous price due to be paid for the electricity produced. Plus the Chinese involvement and worrying security issues raised. I could go on!
