Coalition's nuclear policy announcement has set up an 'energy election'

Sky News host Laura Jayes says the Coalition’s recent nuclear policy announcement has set up an “energy election”. Opposition Leader Peter Dutton revealed the Coalition’s nuclear policy in a media conference on Wednesday, including the seven proposed locations for the nuclear power plants. Mr Dutton has said two of the seven reactors could be providing power to the grid in just over a decade. “How would it work and the cost of it - we don't know that either yet,” Ms Jayes said. “There are a lot of hurdles - the first one is winning the next election for Peter Dutton. “So, at this point, what matters the most is public opinion - the nuclear option directly affects all of us. But, it affects the communities in and around the proposed sites the most.”
