Still true three years later… We’ve just had a huge win with the NSW Upper House voting to lift their nuclear bans. We’ve got the momentum, Australia’s bans will all be lifted. Good thing I started young 😅

On May 15th 2023 our Founder @shackelwill provided evidence to the Senate Committee on the federal nuclear power prohibition. Australia's nuclear bans must be lifted for a clean energy future. ✍️Take Action 📚Learn More 🛍️ Shop Merch nuclearforaustralia.com

@ChrisLawsonHood @RotaryBloke If generation halves in a year (which the post implies) you can realistically assume that means half of all plants have been taken offline. There’s no justification for the Minister’s deliberately misleading post.

@RotaryBloke @ShackelWill Nuclear power generation is somewhat down from its peak, in absolute terms. It is markedly down as a share of power generation, which has risen substantially. Will Shackel was pretending a chart about power generation was about the number of nuclear plants: this was plain wrong.

Over half of the world’s nuclear power plants closed between 2024 and 2025 according to Australia’s Energy Minister. News to me.

@charmain7250681 @nuclearforaus @OneNationAus I’ve only seen it quite recently. It’s excellent that @OneNationAus have a concrete nuclear policy. However, I don’t think building just one large 1.4GW reactor makes sense. If you’re going to build the supply chain & workforce you want a fleet of (probably smaller) reactors.

Nuclear for Australia welcomes the Coalition's commitment to lifting the nuclear power prohibitions in their budget reply last night. Nuclear in the mix is critical for Australia's clean energy future. We're the only Top 20 economy with a ban.

@TMFScottP It’s totally uncontroversial to support lifting the ban.

@kwingerei @TMFScottP Australia is one of just five countries (3 if you exclude countries importing nuclear electricity) with a ban. We’ve got the most uranium in the world and will have 9 nuclear reactors between OPAL and AUKUS. The ban is very silly and you’re silly if you’re defending it.

@JackoIsBack58 He could have put a title on the graph or an explanation in the caption, he didn’t. It was deliberately misleading.

@ShackelWill Silly nonsense Will. Clearly you don't understand the graphs. (They are showing the change in electricity generation by source from the previous year.)

Never take climate activists seriously who oppose nuclear power.

NSW Labor backs in gas over clean nuclear energy. Environmentalists should be up in arms. Why does @NSWLabor stand in the way of clean energy and clean fuel exports in the form of uranium?

Just saw Minister for Climate Change Chris Bowen at the airport I said “good to see you Chris,” he pretended he knew me and nodded 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I could have yelled something but it’s honestly funnier this way, the way he nodded like I was an old mate of his is peak comedy

Yesterday, after filming a video about nuclear being illegal in Australia, I accidentally took my prop handcuffs into Parliament with me. They got confiscated but fortunately after a pretty awkward time explaining myself they were returned. Always fun times advocating for something banned 😅

@honmattkean Mr Grimes ran an organisation responsible for blatant falsehoods that nuclear would be 4% of the grid and cost $600 bn. His nuclear disinformation campaign will inevitably mean fossil fuels for longer and more emissions. How can you celebrate that @honmattkean given your role?

Proud to pay tribute tonight to John Grimes — a leader who always put the national interest first, was never afraid to be in the fight, and leaves enormous shoes to fill. This industry — and this country — is better because of you, John. 🙏⚡ #SmartEnergyCouncil
