Sizewell C – Wrong Project, Wrong Time, Wrong Place.
Stop Sizewell C statement on Sizewell C’s Final Investment Decision, 22 July 2025.
“This much-delayed Final Investment Decision has only crawled over the line thanks to guarantees that the public purse, not private investors, will carry the can for the inevitable cost overruns. Even so, UK households will soon be hit with a new Sizewell C construction tax on their energy bills. It is astounding that it is only now, as contracts are being signed, that the government has confessed that Sizewell C’s cost has almost doubled to an eye watering £38 billion – a figure that will only go up. Given that Ministers claimed not to recognise the cost was close to £40 billion is there any wonder there is so little trust in this project?”

"[Cakes & Ale] was a really lovely holiday park, but it became shoddier and went downhill. There are [#SizewellC] work vans everywhere.....it was a real gem in #Suffolk, but it has now been destroyed. They are just cashing in, aren't they?"

Walberswick Against LionLink: “We're appalled by the possibility of #Walberswick having to be evacuated because of the construction of #LionLink. It reinforces what a ludicrous idea it was to bring LionLink to Suffolk's coast and Walberswick in particular"

"The comment by Sir David King on how the E side of Britain is “tilting into the sea” is the result of more than just aggressive coastal erosion caused by climate change (“Residents lambast ‘nuts’ location of #SizewellC as coastal erosion gains pace”) 1/2

...The Suffolk shoreline has long known about the effects of coastal erosion. Most of the original town of Dunwich was lost to the sea in storms a very long time ago. The little that is left of Dunwich is about 3.5 miles north of where the Sizewell C nuclear power station will be built.
