I don't care who is in power, I am against nuclear power, it has not proved safe, incidents such as Windscale, Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima prove this to be true. These we know of because they made the news, how many smaller accidents slipped through because they didn't make the news, or were covered up?
