I'm a bit surprised that news.com.au let this little bit of truth slip through:

“They’re yet to come up with a plan with where the reactors can go and how much they will cost,” the spokesperson told news.com.au.

“Even if we started today, having nuclear power ready within 10 years is being generous. They’re very much against renewables, where we are backing it. Labor has implemented the $20b rewiring the nation policy, which has produced an actual change for the future.

“There are credible reports that nuclear is the most expensive source of energy in the world, so they really need to show people the plan.”

They've had a few periods where the could easily have progressed this in earnest over the last few decades but did 5/8ths about it. If this was any more than a distraction from them they would have actually done something, anything, about it. Maybe the coalition could try doing something constructive for a change, or is progress too progressive for them?
