UK Nuclear reprocessing has been a complete disaster so far. Not only that...deliberate illegal radioactive discharges, leaks, safety compromises. If anybody wants to see nuclear reprocessing they can have these plants moved to their neighbourhood.

Sellafield.(Cumbria)
UN quashed Republic Irelands complaint of dumping radioactivity into the Irish sea. Sellafield also has an appalling safety record. In fact they have renamed the plant to try and hide the problems.
