nope.  It's a Nuclear plant that is polluting NOW. And not by accident.

Obviously you missed my quotation marks.  It doesn't seem well run to 
me, either...  but then again, storing it in underground bunkers for 
thousands of years doesn't appear to be a much better solution.  The 
point is that TMI  and Chernobyl were accidents.  Sellafield isn't.  
Nuclear policy overrides safety when it's "convenient" -

The Sellafield nuclear installation in north-west England produces vital 
energy to the people of the United Kingdom. It also produces weapons 
grade material needed for the production of nuclear weapons. For these 
reasons, Sellafield is an important facility for the U.K. in terms of 
domestic and security needs. Although Sellafield provides important 
services for the people and government of the United Kingdom, it has had 
a detrimental effect on the environment.

Because it's "important" it's allowed to pollute. And while it "produces 
vital energy for the UK", it hurts Ireland which has none of the 
benefits of this facility.

We have a State Church... something that you don't have... yet.  Though, 
if your president has his way...
