Dutch province of Brabant, where the far right, climate denying FvD rules together with VVD and CDA, now wants a nuclear power plant. "It takes less space" than wind and solar. Probably so, because it won't happen. 
A TNO report commissioned by the province is pretty clear: there are no locations that could get a permit, the thorium type the province wants will not be available for at least 20 years, and wind and solar are cheaper.
Pretty devastating. Unless you just want to slow down the energy transition of course.
FvD party platform: "There is no climate crisis. The climate always changes." Denial for beginners.

Unfortunately, our NOS evening news, which prominently featured the province's fantasy, forgot to ask the provincial executive why he wants a nuclear power plant if there's no climate crisis.
