Nuclear lobby identifies preferred sites for 20 nukes in Australia

National Party luminaries such as Barnaby Joyce and NSW deputy premier John Barilaro must be tickled pink. 

Outspoken pro-nuclear advocates have been identified
by the local nuclear lobby as some of the most prospective
locations for their call to build 20 nukes in Australia’s main grid.

The electorates of these outspoken pro-nuclear advocates have been identified by the local nuclear lobby as some of the most prospective locations for their call to build 20 nukes in Australia’s main grid.

These areas include Joyce’s New England electorate, Barilaro’s state electorate of Monaro in southern NSW, and fellow booster Ken O’Dowd’s federal electorate of Flynn in central Queensland. Won’t their constituents be pleased!

Other towns and regions identified include the Latrobe Valley, the Gippsland region of Victoria, Albury, Whyalla and Port Augusta in South Australia, the mid-north coast of NSW, and a whole bunch of sites in south-east Queensland.
