Sisters, aged 9 and 11, plead to UK PM to save environment from Sixewell C nuclear project

East Anglian Daily Times 31st Dec 2020,’I will never see the stars again’ – Sizewell sisters ask PM to stop
construction of power station. Two young girls have written to the Prime
Minister with their concerns about the creation of a new nuclear power
station in Suffolk. Eleven-year-old Evelyn Fairhurst and her nine-year-old
sister Merran wrote letters to Boris Johnson about the proposed £20billion
project. The sisters live in Sizewell hamlet and are concerned about the
impact that Sizewell C could have on their surroundings, including RSPB
Minsmere, where their mum Katie works. The girls were asked by local
campaigners if they would like to voice their concerns by writing a letter
to Mr Johnson. “The kids were really keen to do it,” said Mrs Fairhurst.
