Government Drops $19 Billion on Nuclear Plant - They're Really Investing in Our Future, Like It's 1950

Listen here, folks, the UK government's just proven they're the last holdouts at the party of progress. They're investing $19 billion in what? A nuclear plant. Oh, how quaint. Like it's the 50s and we're all about to duck and cover at the sound of a whistle.
This isn't just about creating jobs, mind you. No, they're betting the farm on something that'll take a decade to build, and another to realize it's a ticking time bomb, or worse, a financial sinkhole. Ten thousand jobs, they say, like that'll fix the economy. Might as well open a lemonade stand for all the impact it'll have.
But hey, at least they're thinking about the future. A future where our grandchildren might get a few more years of electricity before the whole shebang goes kablooey. They're not just investing in energy; they're investing in a time capsule, a testament to our inability to move beyond the Atomic Age. God save the Queen, and her precious nuclear dreams.
