It's the Guardian. For those not over here, it's heavily biased - essentially a leftist counterpart of Fox News.
Onto the article - That it's a UK government report raises a red flag to me; the government have never considered anything seriously other than more and more windmills.

In other words, a less sensationalist headline might be "More investment required to unlock Thorium potential and reduce costs".
The report even recommends low level investment; it just states t hat it isn't ready as a soon-to-be-replacement for most/all generating infrastructure.
Nice try. Do you think people don't actually read your links?
