Dark Nuclear Light by

On my way home from Eyemouth ,after a wee family holiday at the caravan site…..Lovely place Eyemouth.
This is a drive by with Torness Nuclear Power station (Last one to be built in the UK) in view from the A1 main road ,near Dunbar.
In light of what has happened in Japan and then reading a bit about this particular plant , GET RID,SHUT THEM DOWN….
This from The Guardian last week 22-03-11
Two reactors at Torness in East Lothian have suffered failures in electricity supplies, several “unplanned shutdowns”, and a seaweed blockage. It was the loss of power caused by the earthquake and tsunami that triggered the still unfolding nuclear disaster at Fukushima in Japan.

The revelations have reignited concerns about the safety of Britain’s nuclear stations. French-owned EDF Energy admitted that it had not followed the correct procedures, but insisted that there had been no danger to the public

Shutdown of both units due to drumscreen blockage by seaweed – August 2006
Unplanned power excursion – December 2005
Catastrophic failure of a gas circulator – May 2002
Crash of an RAF Tornado Near the Site – November 1999

I stay only 30 miles from here……..
