Keir Starmer is reported to be intending to hold a "nuclear moment" before the conclusion of the Spending Rewiew (scheduled for 11 June) to announce approval of Sizewell C.
Please write to the Prime Minister, Chancellor and Energy Secretary to tell them that Sizewell C cannot help them to achieve their Energy Mission, and that there are better ways to promote their growth agenda.
For example:
* The massive cost of £40 billion will only result in less than a thousand long-term jobs, but if they put this money into the Warm Homes Plan it would create many thousands of sustainable jobs nationwide, improving Labour's chances of winning the next election.
* Sizewell C would put up household energy bills immediately, with a nuclear tax imposed coming from use of a funding model called the Regulated Asset Base (RAB). It's never before been used for nuclear projects.
* Sizewell C would also require a substantial amount of taxpayers' money at a time when there are many urgent demands on the public purse, including the rescue of British Steel.
* Sizewell C could not help the Labour government achieve its target of decarbonising the UK's electricity system by 2030.
