Hinkley Point protest: 400 protesters blockade nuclear power station - 3 Sept 2011

Nuclear is the safest and the cleanest power source available, apart from the highly awful, and terribly slow power sources such as hydro energy and wind energy.

Thanks indeed for uploading this - it was a wonderful day (thanks weather for co-operating lol!) - and it is, of course, only the beginning. On the saturday we all marched through Bridgwater - and met some opposition from some local people whose income comes from work at Hinkley. One group were very vocal - although, very quietly, so his friends couldn't hear, one told me how he had accidentally leaned on a particular wall and received 600times the "safe" dose of radiation...continued...

he had had to be "cleansed" and had to have time off to prevent more contamination. He kept rubbing the left side of his chest and saying worriedly "right by my lungs". He joked in front of his friends, but the scared look in his eyes stays with me. We MUST do all we can to stop this abomination. Hinkley A is decommisioned but is still highly contaminated and LETHAL. Hinkley B is still operating and creating more and more lethal waste. And now they want TWO more reactors??!! I think not..

@Clashara Complete and utter nonsense.

@Waced1 Excuse me - are you calling me a liar? This incident happened exactly as i said...he was a very worried man. I am sorry if you have a problem believing that.
