Cosgrove backs nuclear power
Lack of Australian nuclear plant almost immoral: Peter Cosgrove “….. it was “almost immoral” to export uranium to less technologically advanced and stable countries to use in nuclear power plants while refusing to have one in Australia………..We’re a rich and technologically advanced nation sitting in a geologically stable continent, so surely we can expect to build and operate safely a nuclear power station.”
Cosgrove wants nuclear answer to climate change Former Australian Defence Force chief Peter Cosgrove says Australia should adopt nuclear power as its response to climate change……Mr Abbott, however, says he agrees that nuclear power is the only realistic way to reduce carbon emissions while maintaining living standards. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2010-02-26/cosgrove-wants-nuclear-answer-to-climate-change/343990

Yes, he is also a strong proponent of Australia being part of an Asia- Pacific Islands EU arrangement….. Which means of course, that Australia would become the Germany of the region, bailing out all the poor and dysfunctional economies. God, these conservatives are unreal ! Being a conservative in his views is why Cosgrove was appointed of course. Ah well, at least, it wasn’t Johnny Howard !
