"I think Chris Bowen needs to disown this, this morning … Are we saying that nuclear medicine is not safe? Are we saying that the submariners that the partnership in Aukus that Labor has signed up to, is that going to put our submariners at risk? Are you going to be at risk if you live near a base where these submarines will be in? It is so important that the energy minister of this country disowns this campaign right now."

In this case, though all of that is happening, she has a point. The Suppurating COALition signed us up for AUKUS (aka USUKAus), an ungetoutable deal, upon which the present govt has had to put a good face.
However, Nuclear Medicine cannot be equated with Nuclear Reactors.
It is my personal opinion that neither SMRs, nor Nuclear-powered subs, will eventuate. It's all yellowpie in the sky.

I can literally spend 15 minutes disproving everything that she says with referenced evidence. How the fuck do people elect these morons?
