Pro nuclear spin now wearing thin
No surprise that Australia’s nuclear establishment is revving up propaganda at present – with falling uranium prices, and Fukushima, and even Chernobyl won’t go away.
Australia could just be waking up at last. Today, Helen Caldicott reminds us of the World Health Organisation’s subservient position to the International Atomic Energy Agency. A reminder of the current nuclear mafia’s “spin” about nuclear radiation being sort of OK, after all.
Australia can’t continue to get away with:
(a) selling uranium to Fukushima reactors, to Russia, China, – pretending the industry is safe, and not connected with weapons.
(b) Australian companies setting up uranium and rare earths industries in countries with poor environmental regulation – e.g Paladin in Africa, and now Lynas, in Malaysia
Ziggy Switkowski, Barry Brook, Michael Angwin, and a swag of Liberal and Labor heavies can try to put it over the Australian public, on the nuclear industry – but they just might not be succeeding any longer.– Christina Macpherson
