Yeah but...serious question: isn't water (and lots and lots of it) a key ingredient for reactors?
Spose you could build a desal plant too and create a mutually cooperative dynamic between them...

I agree and I think we should pursue nuclear technology (amongst others). Much like what we’ve recently learned with vaccines it’s daft to throw all your chips behind just one horse on the table.
We’ve probably missed the boat as far as current fission technology goes but that’s not a bad thing. There’s that sticky issue with waste and expense and whatnot, but we need to be actively researching better, safer more efficient practices and alternative nuclear fuels like Thorium or chasing the holy grail itself - nuclear fusion.
With no nuclear infrastructure other than a tiny plant at Lucas Heights and CUB’s Abbotsford Brewery, we’ve got no chance of doing either right now which is a shame as Australia is probably the best suited continent on the planet for nuclear infrastructure.

shitload of waste energy in the form of heat to get rid of, perfect for Desal
we have a shit load of ore in the ground too...
I'm sure we could increase the size of CUB to allow more processing of toxic waste too.

Water certainly is but I’m not sure the extent required.
Other arid and semi-arid countries like Israel, Iran, Pakistan and India manage to run nuclear programs (albeit with the intention of building bombs) and nuclear subs themselves -where storage space is at an absolute premium- manage to stay submerged at sea for months at a time constrained only by food supply.

Like I said I think we may have missed the boat both for 20th Century era uranium fission and for the output of CUB - craft beer’s all the rage these days!

I was under the impression that CUB only produce toxic waste.....

They only bottle the toxic bit, the rest is just waste.

Yeah you're right, he should probably resign from life.

Someone should gotcha that smirking cunt with his soundbites about Sam Dastyari needing to go and why he's not holding the current minister to the same standard.

One (hyphenated) word - by-election.
If Porter resigns from parliament then there will be a by-election and that is the last thing they want. Particularly after the state election wipe out for the libs.

He'll probably be back anyway. Mackenzie should've been DOA after her rorting, and as for fucken Barn, but look at em both now.
This is a way for Porter to step back "honourably" (for now) and get back on the front bench in a new cabinet after the next election.

True, the French mud slinging will be forgotten next week once a new 'crisis' emerges.
Look that way folks, nothing new to see here.
