Good afternoon.Pauline Hanson says two nuclear reactors should be built on Australia’s east coast, in remarks at odds with One Nation’s official policy.Speaking in Victoria ahead of the November state election, the One Nation leader said “the reactors need to happen”, while also calling for taxpayer funding to keep coal-fired Loy Yang power station outside Traralgon operating, as part of a push for a “diversity” of power supply.Hanson insists the policy is nothing like Peter Dutton’s failed push to build plants during his unsuccessful election campaign.The party’s own official policy calls for $6.8bn to be spent on construction of one east coast nuclear reactor, to be built at a site supported by community consultation.Top news
