where are you getting your numbers from? Nuclear is one of the most cost effective energy options. well ahead of solar and wind and their is plenty of materials available for it. Many mines have had to cut back on production, e.g. Australia is mining around 40% less than it was a decade ago even though it has massive reserves of uranium

nuclear is more expensive than burning money... the brits have to pay 92,5 Pound/mw.
and that finish nuclear plant is still in the building burning alot of money...

Nuclear is expensive in UK because they're buying it from the french. Remember: Never trust the french.
Over 70% of the energy produced in France comes from nuclear plants and on average their kwh is cheaper than UK's by a slim margin. It wouldn't make any sense if nuclear was as expensive as you say.

those are old, and realy badly build and maintained. building a new one, with todays safety standard, well thats costs a lot.

And it'll last for over 30+ years. What happens here is that there's another guy in the middle who wants money. Uk wanted to pay 80 Pounds/mw, France 100 Pounds/mw and it ended at 92.5 Pounds/mw.
