But hey idiot Britain invested in nuclear energy only to make 90% of them shut down.

Isn't that what a lot of Europe has done over the last decade to transition to wind/solar in the name of Climate Change(tm)?

Shuts down Nuclear in exchange for 'green' energy which has dubious effects at best

Oh yeah, those evil nasty nuclear power plants and their emissions of...Water vapor...Which at worst causes fucking RAIN, something we could all do with a bit more of.

Yep but unlike Britain, most of Europe didn't previously collapse all their other powerstations and fuel supplies.

Britain still has plenty of coal.
