Victorian Premier Jacinta Allan has vowed to never let Victoria become a nuclear state, labelling the Federal Coalition’s push for the energy source as “unfathomable”.
The robust push back from Ms Allan came as state Opposition Leader John Pesutto said it was too early to say whether he will back or block his federal party leader’s plan to build a plant in the Latrobe Valley.
Ms Allan on Wednesday slammed Peter Dutton’s proposal to build a nuclear power plant at Loy Yang, one of seven pledged across the nation.
“They want to bring more expensive, more risky, more toxic energy solutions to the people of this country,” Ms Allan said.
“We won’t stand for that. We absolutely will not stand for that … it is unfathomable.”
