BRISTOL WAS NOT CONSULTED ABOUT THE BUILDING OF A NEW NUCLEAR POWER STATION NEARBY

What kind of a consultation process does not include the city of Bristol, the outskirts of which are a mere eight miles from a proposed new nuclear power station? This is the question that the people of Bristol have been asking, since they discovered that Oldbury has been chosen as the sight for a huge new nuclear power station, eight times bigger than the one that is already there.

Anti-nuclear campaigners have welcomed a move by a Liberal Democrat councillor to commit the city to oppose the building of new atomic power stations near Bristol. Cllr Mark Wright has put forward a motion for the full council meeting on January 19 calling on any consultation for the new plants at Hinkley Point and Oldbury to include people within Bristol.
