Nuclear
There’s a reason why Peter Dutton wants to cut the things Australians rely on the most – like Medicare.
The money for his $600 billion nuclear power scheme has to come from somewhere. And he wants you to pay for it.
Here’s what we know about Peter Dutton’s nuclear power scheme:
- It will cost $600 billion to build – which means he has to make deep cuts to pay for it
- It won’t start producing any energy until 2040 at the earliest
- It will only provide 4 per cent of Australia’s energy needs
- It will push up power bills by as much as $1200 a year for families.
Peter Dutton’s nuclear power scheme will take longer to build, deliver less energy, and make power bills more expensive.
And who will pay for Peter Dutton’s $600 billion nuclear reactors? You will.
No private investor will touch them – so Peter Dutton will make you pay.
You won’t get any power for 20 years, but you’ll be paying the bill every day until then.
