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.

Some of NNL's hesitance comes from UK utility companies' unwillingness to invest the money in research and development necessary to draw out thorium's advantages.
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?

...It's not anywhere near as bad as Fox News. It actually does some original investigation, for one thing.
