In Australia our conservatives run on the promise of nuclear power, but they've been in power for 20 of the last 26 years and haven't ever attempted to implement it, they just use the promise to stymie the development of renewables.

Imo the time to try to use nuclear to suppress oil and gas was 50 years ago.
