- Sky News host Rowan Dean has slammed Labor MP Andrew Charlton for being a “complete hypocrite” on his nuclear energy stance.
Mr Dean told Sky News host Andrew Bolt that Andrew Charlton had previously been an advocate for nuclear being a viable source of energy.
“What a hypocrite, he’s done the exact same thing, he’s saving the Labor Party and his reputation rather than the planet.”
Labor is the head of the Australian animal farm and Albo is the head pig in the farm.
😆 Wait wait wait.... Labor's plan is to run the country's power grid using our roofs & our cars? 😆 And charge us money for it too!? 😆 We have the dumbest energy minister known to mankind, he's doing nobody any favors & needs to find a new career because with an energy plan like this; I wouldn't trust him to change a light bulb.
Biggest bunch of loonies in history. Are they alright in the head. Spare us.
Andrew Charlton, what a Hippocrit.
@MarkHardstaff-p6imaybe he doesn’t like hippopotamuses?
Poor Andrew Charlton - born with the silver spoon in his mouth - now caught out - should have taken the spoon out before he said it.
He was in ,y year in high school and is far from the aussie battler he makes out. No one can believe he is working with labor.
With all these older solar panels nearing the end of their life. I predict that in the future the Governments of the world will charge the customer through the nose to recycle the waste. Sort of how 25 years ago a used tyre was landfill and today they charge you a fee to recycle them.
A used tyre was not landfill 25 years ago. You need to come up with some believable lies
@@Poorlineforevadepends on which minesite you work on
Any politician that is anti nuclear.
Follow the money.
Very few if any politicians care about anything other then them selves.
The Labor party have no idea and most Australians want this. When will Labor wake up and get a grip with reality and what is happening all over the world except this inept government called labor.
They are gone and the sooner the better
They are making plenty of
....plenty of waves before th
If they own it all, can they pay the bills for it all too?🤔
They want to own 40% of house prices in shared equity scheme. That means they will own 40% of any appreciation, including if you spend money on it to maintain or improve it. Talk about stealing your assets.
Ask the liberals
It's their plan
So much for sanctions when Rosatom, one of Russia's largest corporations is currently constructing 24 large nuclear reactors in 7 countries because renewables alone can't meet their growing energy needs.
Yes indeed. Burkina Faso can do it, but apparently we cannot. Fmd!
They have all been cancelled. They just cost too much
And to rub salt into the intransigence of our in-denial Labor Party and its idiot Minister Bowen, one of these Rosatom builds of Nuclear power plants is in Mali
The embarrassment
Labour has no come back for logic, they don't want Australia and Australians to prosper..
Rowan has a 12 string guitar! Nice. Charlton is just another individual willing to sacrifice principals for a career in the bereft union dominated ALP.
You reckon? 😊
Rohan has a one neuron mind. He's an idiot
I can't imagine letting letting mr Bowen use my $20,000 dollar EV battery as part of the grid for his own purposes, rechargeable batteries work on a chemical reaction and the more you charge them and discharge them , the more they degrade, as does the range to your car.
Aren't they also draining roof top solar and home battery storage.
I've certainly heard they are remotely changing air conditioning thermostats.
THE AUSTRALIAN LABOR GOVERNMENT ,
BETTER THAN WATCHING
LIVE AT THE APOLLO .
SATT.
Andrew the sharlaton
The pm flying all around the world and new planes seeing the world and eating what ever they want , but we can’t
You can eat bugs remember
@@Poorlineforeva YES and own nothing and be happy, remember.
I think we have just seen the issue with how the labour party system works.
Don't worry as Pinocchio said you just have to make sure too plug your Ev in when you get home and your solar panels will charge it over night. Replacing what was used out of its battery by the grid.😂😂😂
Yep mr cool changes his mind. Has bought himself undone..😂😂👍
We're the only western country thst doesn't have nuclear
What about Spain, Italy, Austria, Denmark, Greece and Ireland?
You realise that Germany has actually decommissioned all of their nuclear plants. So your statement is factually wrong.
Where do you get that from?
Why would you make such a clearly falsifiable claim?
Well, only important country.
Expect higher mortality rates from homes fires if people are responsible for generating the nation's energy needs.
It's like this new craze where men float in pools, embrace each other, and cry loudly; the renewables power system. 😂😅😅
Excellent interview guys..
👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣
Charlton is not a hypocrite, he is simply saying what he has to say to stay onside with his hopeless boss and to climb the slippery slope of political ambition. He would make a far better Treasurer than Chalmers. At least his doctorate is in economics from a world class university, not in politics from an also ran one. For now, he has to serve his time as a first term backbencher.
A Labour Federal politician who supported the merits of "noook-leear"energy years ago is now dead against it? What a surprise! All labour federal politicians sing from the same songbook, no matter what, so I'm not surprised about their collective hypocrisy 😯😂😂😂😂
It's fine for every other country to have nuclear except Australia.😕
Not true. For example Germany has decommissioned all of their nuclear plants. The percentage of nuclear worldwide is about 10% and is declining. You don’t seem to have a grasp of the facts.
@@paldridg But Germany is regretting that greatly and has even gone back to burning coal. The cost of power has skyrocketed and many industries are looking at moving to other countries including BMW, Mercedes and Volkswagen. And at COP28 there was an international declaration to triple existing nuclear power generation. So I think you're a little behind the times.
@@paldridg They have foolishly shut down nuclear in Germany, but they haven't banned it.
@@awc900 it is you that is behind the times…… The automotive companies you mention already produce around the world and have no intention to leave Germany but labour costs are a major inhibitor of the competitiveness. The cost of electricity is not a factor. The current forecast is that solar and wind will overtake nuclear as a source of electricity generation worldwide by 2030. The percentage of nuclear electricity production has been declining over the last 10 years and is now less than 10% globally.
@@ironmaidens6663 you say foolishly so I assume that you actually know better than the German government on what is the correct energy generation mix. You must be an amazingly knowledgeable person with a great depth of experience in the subject. Alternatively you could just be a keyboard warrior proposing unfounded propositions based on little or no knowledge of the facts.
How about a massive bushfire that Canberra has already experienced that Canberrans can't escape because their car batteries are flat!
Don't threaten me with a good time.
Don't be so sensible.,.🥴
Good point👍
The Sun has won - nuclear is a dead duck. Andrew Charlton is a smart man - he did his research.
Socialism 101
😂it is a sign we re falling apart, is it beginning of the decline???
Corey Howard
buck the system - Craig Kelly, Gerard Rennick - Coalition will sack you also. The uniparty does not serve us.
This is simply puerile rubbish. I expect it from Rowan Dean but not from Andrew Bolt. As my school report used to read “he can do better”
Just ONE new reactor construction start last year outside of China, and just TWO so far this year.
Total capacity of the 59 reactors under construction is a paltry 60 GW, some of which wont be available until next decade.
Nuclear is going nowhere
@@tassied12 the average size nuclear reactor produces plenty.
@@tassied12 3.125 million PV panels or 431 utility scale wind turbines is equivalent one nuclear plant. Nuclear energy also provides more clean energy to the grid than any other energy source, accounting for half of the US’s clean energy electricity production.
@@jamesgowing3856 The trend is not your friend. There are no new nuclear plants on order in the US and there is rapid deployment of wind and solar.
For the first 6 months of 2024, wind and solar output exceeded nuclear for the first time (401.4 TWh for W&S versus 390.5 TWh for nuclear)
@@tassied12 you are talking nonsense.There is Unit 3 at the Alvin W. Vogtle Electric Generating Plant in Georgia, which began commercial operation on July 31, 2023. The average age of US plants is 42 years with the majority of them having their operating age extended from 40 to 60 years & potentially for another 20 years up to 80 years. Why build new ones? Yeah you didn't think about the one. Right?
@@jamesgowing3856 The oldest nuclear plants in the world are just 56 years old, and they have had major refits, so whether any of those US reactors ever make it beyond 60 years is a moot point.
San Onofre, Crystal River, Kewaunee, Vermont Yankee, Oyster Creek and Indian Point all received license extensions and still had the reactors close anyway.
Even with the new Vogtle plant coming online, US nuclear output last year (775.35 TWh) was less than it was way back in 2002 (780.6 Twh). Its basically been on a plateau for 2 decades.
Solar output has doubled in 4 years
Sky News should be experts on hypocrisy.
TBF, the guy has a point. Clamoring for nuclear energy does kick the can down the road probably 50 years. Sure, you could get one or two plants built in 10-15 years, but developed countries will need dozens and eventually hundreds of nuclear power plants and those just can't be built very quickly. There are 54 nuke plants in the US that took decades to build and they only provide 20% of electricity needs. The US would need 250 power plants. Imagine how long that would take and what it would cost? Nuclear power can be part of the solution, but it isn't the sole answer.
Agreed, nuclear isn't the sole answer.
However, France built 56 reactors across 20 plants in about 15 years (a few before, a few after, but the bulk in the 15 year span) to provide 70% of their electricity.
The French started from less of a base then, than Australia would start from now:
* another 40 years of learning about nuclear plants
* another 40 years of experience to provide useful (and non-useful) regulations, designs, operating procedures
* another 40 years with new and improved textbooks to train engineers with
* etc, etc
As for decades and decades - after several decades of building solar and wind, they still, together, contribute about 15% of US electricity, so they haven't caught up to nuclear, despite nuclear not building too many plants in the last 20 years.
No plants are built in 15 years. It's a myth
Stop lying @@factnotfiction5915
@@factnotfiction5915 Good points. I just checked France. Their newest plant in 20 years is slated to come online this year, 12 years late. It was supposed to be finished in 2014, or a 7-year build. If France can't throw up a new nuclear plant quickly these days, it's going to be harder for a country like Australia with really no experience or expertise with it. Same in the US. There aren't many people around with the knowledge to build and run these things and it will take time to ramp up.
@@KentoLeoDragon Great research!
What this should teach you is don't use French or American firms to build your NPPs - use Korean firms!
KEPCO built Barakah in the UAE in about 14 years start to finish; but from concrete pour to reactor (i.e. construction time only), it took about 8 years for the first reactor, and 4-5 years for the last, 4th reactor.
So, how have people living in Hiroshima & Nagasaki been going since 1945?
(Most notably the "nijyuu hibakusha".)
Hiroshima currently has a population around 2,063,000 and Nagasaki 392,281.
Better than us, actually. They even live longer. And that's entirely irrelevant to nuclear electricity.
More to the point how are Aussies going since 1945 . Pretty bloody good thanks.
@@YvonneCrean Until the LNP party gave the governance to Labor in 2022. Everything is now going down the gurgler fast. Vote the b#stards out at the next Sate and Federal elections!!
