Australian One Nation leader calls for two nuclear reactors in Victoria
Australian One Nation leader Pauline Hanson recently stated that two nuclear reactors should be built on Australia's east coast. She also emphasized that the party's proposal differs from the nuclear power plan previously put forward by Liberal Party leader Peter Dutton. Hanson made these remarks while campaigning in Victoria for the November state election. Her statements go beyond the party's existing public policy. Under the party's published policy, Australia should build one reactor at a site supported by community consultation. Hanson said nuclear reactors are necessary, but the energy mix also needs to remain diverse, and she advocated for continuing to operate coal-fired power stations.
