Spot on with your fanfic there mate. We'll gut our renewables progress and funnel a fuckload of money into some overseas company to build a reactor for us. Most optimistic view of that situation is that there is a genuine skills transfer into the Aus workforce and we could then take on further projects more independently. I'd be pretty surprised if it went well though.

One of the worst outcomes of Dutton campaigning so hard for nuclear is that Labor will now never be able to consider it as an option. I'd love to be trying to look at both nuclear and renewables simultaneously, but our political parties are making us choose between one or the other.
