Cumbria Trust reminds UK nuclear lobby that hosting nuclear waste is a VOLUNTARY process

Cumbria Trust 22nd Jan 2018, Cumbria Trust notes with interest that a source close to the process is
quoted as saying:  “The mess they made in the past can’t be repeated.It’s outrageous it became a victim of local politics last time.”

Let us not forget that this was supposed to be a voluntary process, where local
councils had the right to withdraw their interest. How could it be
considered outrageous to exercise that right to withdraw? The new process
starting this week is also based on voluntarism and councils are supposedly
free to withdraw at will. Are we to assume that once a council has
volunteered, it will be made increasingly difficult to withdraw? Is this
voluntarism or coercion?
