@xReeceL2002 Our generation aren't lazy, the rewards of working have been stripped away. You used to be able to buy a house, have a nice holiday once or twice a year, a decent car, now you're literally working to barely survive, it's no wonder a lot of people are thinking it's pointless

@MikeB2023 France has loads of nuclear capacity, we don't. We could have built a number of new reactors in 2010 but Nick Clegg opposed it because they wouldn't have been operational for a decade, political short termism at it's finest
