Would you trust a UK privately-owned firm to run anything nuclear, bearing in mind the failing way that other utilities have been maintained for the last 20+ years.
Power stations under democratic control might be one thing, but allowing systems of privatised control of utilities is only a recipe for disaster, isn’t it? Like giving a lunatic access to your drawer full of knives and askkng him to chop something for dinner.

There are quite a few nuclear power stations operated by private companies without incident around the world already.
I think the bigger concern is construction costs spiralling out of control and landing on the taxpayer.
